Shooting People events at DCTV
Shooting People and DCTV have got some great events coming up in November so if you’re in NYC please check out the following:
On Friday, November 2nd Jennifer Fox will be at DCTV to talk about the making of her latest documentary, the six hour tour de force Flying: Confessions of a Free Woman. Jennifer will show clips from Flying and talk about how filmmakers negotiate the tension between creativity and financial reality, how to raise funds through international co-production, and how to market and distribute independent films through film festivals, the web, and beyond.
On Tuesday, November 6th Shooting People and DCTV are going to HOOK YOU UP. This event puts 40 documentary Directors, Producers, Editors and DPs in the same room in a speed-dating style networking event, to meet and discuss how they might be able to collaborate one-on-one, and face-to-face. Please note: you need to apply for this event before Friday October 26th so get your applications in soon!
Finally, on Friday, November 16th Magnolia Pictures Senior VP Tom Quinn will be at DCTV to talk about distribution. He’ll give an inside take on what buyers are looking for in a potential acquisition, advice on what filmmakers should and shouldn’t do to get the attention of a buyer, and how an acquisition is made. He’ll also discuss how a distributor carries out a marketing plan, and how the domestic and international distribution of a film is executed.
Buy tickets soon because these events usually sell out well in advance. You can find out about all the Fall Events at DCTV on their website.
