The FIRST THURSDAYS FILM FESTIVAL is a MONTHLY festival hosted by The FATHER/DAUGHTER FILM REPORT (so your entry is good for a year, basically giving you 12 chances to get in).
The FATHER/DAUGHTER FILM REPORT can be found on FILM FESTIVAL TODAY magazine
www.filmfestivaltoday.com
Yes, we report on film festivals from around the world with the unique perspective from an old baby-boomer (Dad) and a young millennial (Amanda).
Now having our OWN film festival, our wish is to help film makers with EXPOSURE & NETWORKING in a unique way (besides receiving laurels and having your film shown to a packed house):
We get exposure globally for your film with a write up in FILM FESTIVAL TODAY magazine, which is seen world-wide....and seen by some pretty big names world-wide, too! (For example, at the 2015 China/USA film summit, David was granted an interview with Wei Zhang, president of Alibaba Pictures, the largest film company in China to find out what she is looking for).
If your film is a fan-favorite, or you have a unique story about your film - or youself - we usually do a feature story on THAT, too. No other film festival (unless you win the Academy Awards or maybe Sundance) can give you THAT kind of GLOBAL EXPOSURE.
The festival is held 20 minutes south-east of downtown Austin & 15 minutes from Bergstrom Airport, where we will come to pick you up if you are an official selection and decide to come in person, as well as take care of your room & board if you are staying the night.
Can't make it to central Texas? We understand. However we want you still to be able to experience the film festival NETWORK experience, so after we show your film we'll SKYPE you and/or your colleagues in...unless you're camera shy.
Eines der am längsten laufenden Filmfestivals seiner Art weltweit. Es ist ein Kurzfilmfestival, das für nicht-professionelle Produktionen, Filmschüler sowie kommerzielle Produktionen offen steht. Es findet jährlich in der letzten Novemberwoche statt.
