Had the most epic time at FilmQuest Film Festival! The films were INCREDIBLE! I can't believe I was nominated for a directing award amidst all these brilliant movies! Plus there were amazing activities that had us out until 4am multiple nights. Oof! Now to recover...

Excited to announce I won "Best Director - Short Film" at the Sydney Science Fiction Film Festival for my film "Tether" this weekend!!!! Thank you so much to @sydscififilmfest.bsky.social for the honor!

A press announcement reads: "2025 AWARD ANNOUNCEMENT! BEST DIRECTOR - SHORT FILM: MEREDITH BERG for TETHER (U.S.A.) "I would like to use film throughout my career to show our flaws but also to shine light on our strengths and opportunities. This isn’t a story about a perfect future. One could interpret the world of the story to be dystopic. But what’s important to me is that in the face of dystopia we find solace, community, and our best chance at survival through the support of those around us." - Meredith Berg"
