Igniting Community through Film Festivals
Date: Wednesday – October, 24 2018 Time: 9:30am - 11:00am Room: The Paramount on Film Row Theatre
Oklahoma has produced hundreds of working filmmakers who create thousands of movies each year. These filmmakers need places to screen their films and connect with audiences. Luckily, several film festivals have launched in Oklahoma over the past decade to meet that demand. In turn, the new festivals are providing communities new, positive ways to promote themselves and their local artists. Come meet people who have founded new film festivals in Woodward, Jones, Norman, and Oklahoma City, and discover how you can launch a film festival in your community.
