I'm about to head out the door for a long weekend but will give some thought to your questions while I'm gone.<BR/><BR/>Thank you!<BR/><BR/>ChrisChristopherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15731556832558952660noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9010326211719680633.post-62014782180279148302007-07-19T23:53:00.000-07:002007-07-19T23:53:00.000-07:00Hi Chris!Why don't more festivals use the fee only...Hi Chris!<BR/><BR/>Why don't more festivals use the fee only if your film is selected approach? I have no problem being turned down, but it really irks me when festivals know they're only accepting a few submitted films, yet readily encourage everyone to pay the moderately high fee.<BR/><BR/>I wouldn't mind paying a slightly higher fee if I knew my film was in the festival. Also, for the starving artist those $30-60 fees really add up, and limit your options.<BR/><BR/>I appreciate the difficulties of festival organizers, and I feel like you especially appreciate the struggles of independent filmmakers... I just feel like a better middle ground could be reached to make everyone a little happier.<BR/><BR/>Anyhow, great site! (I think I just flagged my comment as spam - isn't that how the filters know? Any comment that says 'great site' is suspicious... Don't worry, I'm not selling Viagra... shoot did it again, thats probably on the list of flagged words as well... oh well.)Lerone Wilsonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08605555053886515599noreply@blogger.com
