I've identified several local business leaders & citizens who are interested in establishing a film festival in my town, about an hour north of downtown Atlanta, Georgia. Since none of us have any exerience in festivals (my car once broke down on the way Idaho, does that count?) I'm writing in hope that someone can put me in touch with someone who can offer good advice. Please reply to this post or contact me directly (t_j_bowers@hotmail.com) as you prefer.
I'm also interested in any and all input from festival goers. What feature/offering did you really like at a past festival, what really turns off attendees? I don't know but I do want to hear from you!
Everything is still tentative but we plan on holding the first festival in January or February of 2005. While that may sound like a long time off, we hope it will provide us with sufficient of time to prepare and do it right.
Thank you for time!

P.S. This is my first post to these forum and I looked to see if this has already been covered but wasn't able to find anything. I apologize if I'm rehashing a discussed topic. If so, would someone please point me to the correct thread. Thanks!
