I‘m talking with a nice fellow over at IMAGE about recording some of the filmmaker Q&As at the Atlanta Film Festival, which is taking place April 19-28. Would anybody be interested in helping?
There are too many films playing for us to be able to make all of them. Ideally, we’d like to break up the effort such so that each volunteer only was working on recordings for one day or less. We’re not trying to be comprehensive, but it’d be nice to get as many as we could. Even if you could only make it out for a few hours one day to record one or two Q&As, that would be helpful.
This isn’t for money (for us, them, or anybody else), just a get-the-word-out effort to try to help some local filmmakers receive some publicity they might not receive otherwise.
Here’s a rough, not final schedule of Q&As available to record:

I would love to since four or five things that I worked on are in the AFF.
Go see “Blood Car,” “Signal,” and “Day Trip.”
Unfortunately, I’m stuck in rural west GA shooting a feature until the end of the month.
Also, is that the complete schedule? There seem to be some things that I thought were in the festival that aren’t there. Is this just one location?
