What film festivals are worth submitting your projects to? Which festivals are legitimate and which ones are scams out for your money? Is it possible to find like-minded creatives to collaborate with, outside of places like L.A. and New York?
In today’s episode, No Film School’s Charles Haine, GG Hawkins, Jason Hellerman, and guest Amy Dotson discuss:
- Figuring out what you want to get out of a festival
- Reasons why small festivals are awesome
- Things to consider when vetting festivals
- What Amy learned interning at Pee-wee’s Playhouse
- Telling your unique story in only one paragraph
- Why you need to constantly update your bio
- Moving from New York City to Portland
- Thinking about cinematic storytelling in new ways
- Collaborations between local artists and big household names
- How the Portland Art Museum honors multi-faceted creatives
Memorable Quotes
- “What are you going to the festival for? Is it about Hollywood connections or about sharing your film with an audience?” [3:54]
- “Being in the mix and connecting with people at a human level is incredibly valuable. You will find those relationships pay off in the long run.” [12:42]
- “Everybody is different and that’s okay. It’s not a one-size-fits-all model anymore.” [23:34]
- “The goal is to meet other like-minded humans that can help push your career and push you as a human forward.” [29:37]
- “There are stories to be told that are less project-centered and more people-centered.” [46:24]
