How to Plan Your Festival Run
Zandashé Brown, New Orleans Film Festival
With the help of writer/director and Programming Manager of New Orleans Film Society Zandashé Brown, filmmakers will learn how to best navigate the festival circuit. From knowing when to start your festival plan to creating a balanced list of tiered festivals and navigating premiere status, this session will give you all the tools to build a robust festival strategy.
In addition to the Skills sessions, attendees are able to apply for individual 1-on-1 Zoom meetings with the filmmakers leading the sessions. Applications for the 1-on-1 are now closed.
