"The film is about a passionate audio engineer who works in the adult film industry. He is very enthusiastic but he doesn't quite fit in."
Mr George said there were only four awards up for grabs and they managed to win two of them.
"When they announced [Mr Stubbings] as the Best Actor he wasn't there so I had to go and do the speech for him. I was sending him a text to tell him he had won when they called my name as the Best Maori Director," he said. "So I had to go up to do another speech."
He said they were a bit gutted not to get the overall winners' award - the Best Director Award - because the winner gets to fly to Hollywood to meet top film executives for a week.
Mr George and Mr Stubbings work for television show The Crowd Goes Wild. Mr George is also the co-founder of Auckland-based company Sideways Productions, who produced the short film.
