Hello everyone,
My name is Holly and I'm a ten year old filmmaker and actress. Recently I've written and directed my own "proper" short film. I managed to persuade professional filmmakers and actors to travel from across the country to be in my cast and crew - I think one of my actors' (Francesca Turton) mum posts here!
I've entered my film called "Moving On" into a really big competition called Virgin Media Shorts - and this is where I ask for you help!!!! My film needs votes - in particular twitter votes! If you can watch it - and if you like it, please vote!!!!
I've been really busy trying to promote this film and I've done a couple of guest blogs for people if you are interested:

I've also done local radio and newspaper interviews. It would be really brilliant though to have support from other actors too!!!
I have done a blog on my website that explains how to vote - the votes that count most are on twitter ( I know that is a bit annoying as not everyone uses it) - you can Facebook like it though too. With twitter votes there is no maximum number of times that you can vote!
Here is where you can see my film and if you want to learn how to vote for it: http://hollyjacobson.co.uk/blog/
Thank you for reading,
Holly x
(I hope I've put this in the right section)

Hi Holly
Its great to hear from you. We saw your film and loved it. You are very talented and have inspired Pandy to start taking her film-making more seriously (there's a thread about it on here somewhere...)
We'd be delighted to vote for your film and we'll encourage others to do so too. But whether you win or not, you've done an awesome piece of work and should be very proud of yourself. We're looking forward to seeing more of your films in future too.
Good luck!
