South Georgia Film Festival’s Post

The TV and Film industry positively impacts all of Georgia.

The latest episode of A Pause for Cinema, my essay series on film and film form, is now available on YouTube! This time around, I'm discussing the on-screen presence of Puerto Ricans in film and pop media, and the problematic history of representation in Hollywood. Check it out! #film #cinema #puertorico #puertoricanfilm #movies

Counting down to The Film Collaborative Distribution Days on 02-03 May! This FREE virtual event is presented in collaboration with Sundance Institute and Film Independent  and offers eight great sessions to help filmmakers demystify distribution. Topics include: 🎞️What are “all rights” buyers looking for? 🎞️Is a hybrid/bifurcated distribution strategy that includes the EU possible, and for which films? 🎞️Which Educational distributors are out there, for what types of films, and how do you find the one that is the best fit? 🎞️How should you incorporate an Educational window into your overall distribution strategy? 🎞️What steps can you take to make exhibitions of your film more accessible and inclusive? 🎞️What does it mean when festival “hits” are not receiving correspondingly “meaningful” distribution sales offers? 🎞️Can clinging to the potentially unrealistic dream of a big streaming or all rights deal risk your film’s ability to secure other meaningful distribution? 🎞️What should you look out for when signing a distribution agreement? PLUS Case Studies on Event Theatrical and Grassroots/Impact Distribution. Head to The Film Collaborative for free registration - looking forward to seeing many of our favorite storytellers there! Event sponsored by the Golden Globe Foundation

Not only in the UK.

Some trivia about my film "The Next Big Hit": Despite facing hardship and turmoil during production and distributing the film on TUBI https://lnkd.in/gkcQRxPu, several months later, I found out through a few articles that the film was one of the 265 Qualified Films Eligible for Best Picture out of 321 submissions for the Oscars 2024. It was also submitted to the SAG Awards. It was a hell of an achievement to smell the Oscar nomination, even if it was from far away! I did all of it with a micro-budget. I was completed exosted! Unfortunately, I couldn't pursue further recognition as my budget and resources hit rock bottom, and I couldn't afford to promote the film to the Academy Members with private screenings and uploading the film for Academy consideration that cost anywhere from $8k to $20k to over $ 35k to screening the film, which I couldn't afford. However, with the record that I started building, I still have the opportunity for a second chance! So, I will keep moving forward even if I have to crawl, and I'm not out; I'm still the underdog who won't quit, and staying in power will see me to victory; I never stop investing in myself; the payoff is what I live for. https://lnkd.in/gnpXfv5V #Oscars #academyawards #MotionPictures #musical #martialartsmusical #actionmovie #everyone #actor #executiveproducer #NowStreaming
