Panels Announced for the Film Independent Forum, October 25-27

From looking at breakthrough narrative features and acclaimed docs to entering the world of non-traditional formats (webseries! video games! strategic distribution models!), the Film Independent Forum will be the one place to anticipate what's needed for your project to stay ahead of the curve when strategizing your financing, distribution and marketing plans. Panels this year will include:

On Financing

• Financing Clinic - Watch and learn as FIND Fellows present their projects to a panel of experts as they seek potential investors.

• Fund that Doc - Meet the funders who help documentarians navigate their way through legal concerns and financial struggles.

• U-Finance - Filmmakers and reps from various crowdfunding platforms discuss successful crowdfunding examples and explore the impact of the JOBS Act on the future of crowdfunding.

Expert Feeback

• Secrets of Documentary Editing - A comprehensive overview of editing a non-fiction feature with a two-time Academy Award nominated director

• Reports from the Distribution Test Lab - Filmmakers give us the low-down on which distribution models have worked (and which haven't) for their independent films.

• Great Marketing Campaigns - Listen in on an indie film marketing meeting and find out which advice is worth following.

Case Studies

The teams behind some of this year's breakthrough features join us to talk us through their project, from development to distribution, and offer real-world advice and warnings for those working in the industry today.

The New Frontier

Webseries are generating buzz beyond the internet, theatrical screenings are being re-invented and apps are making room for mobile storytelling. Don't be left out of the content revolution being talked about in these panels.

...and even more. Speakers will be announced soon, don't miss out on the early registration passes while they last. Your pass will include: IndieLink sessions (one-on-one conversations with industry leaders), two hosted networking lunches, two networking receptions, tickets to the opening night film, free parking, entry into panels all weekend long and more.

Member early registration rate: $215 (while supplies last)
Non-Member early registration rate: $285
