The March MFVA event was a major success! Thanks to all who helped organize, especially Louise Rosen for putting together such a dynamic group of panelists. The evening consisted of the very first pitching session for Maine based filmmakers. This time around all were docs, we’re not biased….I swear! 5 filmmakers had the opportunity to pitch their film and screen a short clip of their work in progress to an extremely established panel, including Tom Koch, Vice President of PBS International, Cynthia Fennemen, Executive Director for American Public Television, Mary Lampson, editor for numerous docs including Harlan County and Trouble the Water, Sara Archambault, Managing Director for the LEF Foundation and Ben Fowlie, Founder and Director of the Camden IFF.
Well over 100 people gathered in John Seymore’s new Maine Studios for the event. Check out the Maine Film and Video Assoc. page for testimonials from participants and more information on upcoming events. Remember to sign up for a membership to take advantage of all the special membership perks!
