Intimate talk with festival programmers

One of the key topics we will explore today is the art of curating films for festival programming. This is a complex process that goes beyond simply selecting films; it involves understanding the festival's audience, identifying emerging trends, and creating a balanced and diverse program that resonates with viewers. For filmmakers, understanding the selection process is crucial to successfully submitting films to festivals. Our panelists will share their insights on what they look for in submissions, and offer advice on best practices for filmmakers. This is a rare opportunity to gain a deeper understanding of what festival programmers are looking for, and how to make your film stand out in a sea of submissions. Panelists: TBA Date: Friday, 11 August Time: 17:00 Venue: The Garden of Shani Efendi Gallery
