Hi Yunah! As a director, I thought you might be interested in our event on Thursday night, "Produce It Yourself: Film Festivals". A great networking opportunity with curators and film festival directors, and a really interesting discussion on the behind the scenes of putting together a film festival. Here are all details: http://www.nycharities.org/events/EventLevels.aspx?ETID=3263
I hope you will join us!
Take care!
