What is the "MARV NEWLAND AWARD"?

In 1969, Marv Newland made the animated short film "Bambi Meets Godzilla". Zed Fest cofounder Ed Stephens thought the credits scrolling throughout the film were hilarious...

MARV NEWLAND produced by Mr. & Mrs. Newland

While this joke seemed a whole lot funnier back in 1969, and many indie films are written, produced, and directed by the same person, Zed Fest appreciates the whole film filmmakers. The ones who do pretty much everything. The "Chief Cook and Bottle Washers" of moviemaking.

To them we dedicate this "Marv Newland Award"!
