Quiz

What did you find the most interesting when comparing the festival research.  The main part that I found interesting was reading over the different festivals.  How they are ran differently but still have the same level of interest from people in the community.  I had never heard of the Angelus film festival before this week and looking into my research it is one of the most popular film festivals along with Sundance, Austin, and Humboldt.  I also found it very interesting that Humboldt is ran by Undergraduates and that Angelus is for undergraduates but ran by people who are not undergraduates.  I see that Humboldt gives the students a way to learn how to work for a festival and that Angelus will allow students to get noticed by Hollywood personal who work or are a part of the industry.

I found the most interesting sponsor ideas from other festivals comparing them to our's is the amount of sponsors we need.  Monika told me that the reason the Angelus film festival is not happening this year is due to the main sponsor pulling out due to financial and economical reasons.  I feel that we need to gain more and have backups to all of our sponsors.  By saying this I also mean that we need to as she said reach for the stars and the worse they can do is say no.  I looked at several of the sponsor ship pages and they all have big names that I am sure like Fuji Film and local industry work departments that lend support to festivals.
