Since 2008 festival expert Chris Holland’s book “Film Festival Secrets” has been the filmmaker’s guide to the festival circuit. With the second edition of his book launching this Fall, join Chris, your fellow filmmakers, and fest programmers in attendance for a discussion of best submissions practices, the changing festival landscape, and the secrets to finding the right festivals for your film. Chris currently works as the Event Operations Manager for the Atlanta Jewish Film Festival and a consultant for independent filmmakers. This panel is free and open to the public - you do not need a festival ticket to attend.
Sidewalk’s educational programming is sponsored by Wind Creek Hospitality.
