There aren’t a lot of people whose first feature gets produced by Spielberg, but as is usually the case, Carmichael’s seeming overnight success is the product of years of preparation.

“Highlights include Anahita Ghazvinizadeh’s Cannes award-winner Needle, in which a young girl grapples with ear piercings, parental divorce and the realisation that adults are far from infallible; and Emily Carmichael’s brilliantly original comedy RPG OKC, in which two video game characters experiment with online dating.”

Those exposed to some of the great animated shorts playing the festival circuit in 2013 knows that there were plenty of finer entries: My favorite among the ones not nominated was the delightful “RPG OKC,” but the apocalyptic “The Event” also deserves singling out.

“Like everybody else in this racket, I’ve already published my top 10 list — well, a lot of top 10 lists, including my favorite distributed and undistributed movies, best performances and so on — but no single numerical overview can possibly convey the full range of movie experiences this year. As a result, much slips through the cracks, and even after publishing list after list I’m left with a desire to single out a few more titles.”

“Carmichael has a unique style, and she’s a director who’s not afraid to take chances and go out on a limb. She’s a diverse filmmaker who can handle live action as well as thought-provoking animation, á la Richard Linklater.”

With the annual Tribeca film festival now underway all eyes are on the competition schedules. Set to debut on the circuit later today, RPG OKC, from filmmaker and writer Emily Carmichael should be on the radar of any game enthusiast and is a reminder that games are slowly creeping onto the agenda at festivals like Tribeca – in 2011, LA Noire was the first videogame to make the official selection at the event.
