CONGRATS TO DANIEL JUNGE/JUST MEDIA FOR ACADEMY AWARD NOMINATION

Talent runs high in the Junge family.  While SF based visual artist Andrew made ripples across the nation with his Styrofoam Hummer a couple years back, his older brother Daniel has been honing a film career in Denver for more than a decade that rings as one of the most solid in the nation.  Further proof of that status, on top of several "best of" awards from prestigious film festivals for his earlier efforts, came a couple of weeks ago as his latest documentary "The Last Campaign of Governor Booth Gardner" was nominated for an academy award in the short-docs section of the awards.  This is a tremendous honor, and we hope to see Daniel take the stage next month to accept the award.  Starz held a special screening of this poignant and timely film last Saturday, the first opportunity before making its way to NYC this week for additional academy related screenings and hoopla.  Slowly but surely, Denver talent is putting the city on the map of excellence within the arts.  We applaud all efforts in that regards and hope everyone recognizes and supports the talent brewing within our city.
