Subject:

Description:

Covers the role of the festival in the film industry and has a three-stage design. Focuses first on the organizational structure of the film industry from the exhibition and distribution angle, in which the role of the festival is integral. Analyzes the actual workings of an array of film festivals from the boutique, short, and independent showcases to the large international festivals. Allows students, in the third stage, to engage directly with film festivals. Production-oriented students opt for identifying festivals appropriate for the submission of their own productions. Industry-oriented students further their experience of the operational side of film festivals, which may include internships, festival interviews with key industry players, and/or an in-depth audience analysis of a particular film festival experience.
