At the Film Fest Awards Brunch, Ellen received the award for Outstanding Performance - Female for her work in Daniel MacIvor's feature film Wilby Wonderful.

Ellen is a recipient of the first ACTRA Awards presented by ACTRA Maritimes, having received an Outstanding Performance Award for her work in the MacIvor penned Marion Bridge.
Jim Fowler received the Festival's Award for Outstanding Performance - Male for his startling work in Glen Walton's beautifully shot short film, Chamberpiece.
