Tabatha Visutskie and Tyson Vines, of TVM Productions, have won a
prestigious Award of Recognition from the IndieFEST Film Awards. The award was
given for Tabatha Visutskie and Tyson Vines provocative short film production, The
Darkest Choice.
In winning an IndieFEST Film Award, Tabatha Visutskie and Tyson Vines at
TVM Productions joins the ranks of other high-profile winners of this internationally
respected award including 2021 Academy Award winner “If Anything Happens I
Love You” by Laura Dern, Will McCormack and Michael Govier, Oscar-nominee
Liam Neeson as the narrator of Love Thy Nature, A Path Appears Documentary
featuring Oscar-winner George Clooney and Blake Lively, Radical Grace executive
produced by Oscar-winner Susan Sarandon, a searing expose Davids and Goliath by
Peabody winner Leon Lee, and Touched with Fire starring Katie Holmes. Rick
Prickett, who chairs The IndieFEST Film Awards, had this to say about the latest
winners, “The IndieFEST is not an easy award to win. Entries are received from
around the world from powerhouse companies to remarkable new talent. The
IndieFEST helps set the standard for craft and creativity. The judges were pleased
with the exceptional high quality of entries. The goal of The IndieFEST Film Awards
is to help winners achieve the recognition they deserve.”
“As a filmmaker you must take chances and forget about your comfort level even if it
scares you. I deal with depression, and I understand why people who suffer with
mental illness want to end their suffering. The pain can be unbearable and a legal way
to end it might be enticing for one who wants to end their sorrow. However, the
downslide is the lasting effect that it will bring to those who love you, your family
members, friends, and co-workers. There is help. Call suicide hotline and reach out to
your local support system. “
“Winning The Award of Recognition from The IndieFest Film Awards is an honor!
This is truly an amazing gift, and I am forever grateful.”
Tabatha Visutskie (Director, Producer, Actor, Writer)
“This is a very complicated and complex issue that touches many people. I have had a
lot of individuals I know that have taken their lives or have had to deal with their
loved one’s suicide.
It was an honor to take this project on and let these characters show that taking your
life will not only affect you but the people in your life forever.”
“It is an understatement to say that I am excited and honored to win an award for
this film, we worked very hard on Darkest Choice, and it shows us as filmmakers, we
are headed in the right direction. Thank you, IndieFEST Film Awards.
Awards and their judges,” -Tyson Vines (Director, Producer, Editor, Actor, Writer)
