Hi,
thanks for the replies!
Hey Hunter7 congrats to you too ! My film is a feature Johnny Ghost which has been making the rounds on the underground/indie film fest circuit for a year now. As I live in Australia it is a long way to go - but I have some frequent flyer points that I could use so that's why I was asking. Are you going ?? Also, I will have a look on twitter - what hashtag are they using ?
Sweetie, it's not the Berlinale - wow, if I had got into that our gov't run film funding body would be private jetting me over !
Justinisfilming - yes, a valid q - why did i send it off not knowing much about it? Normally I cross and double check every fest before entering - it is so important to do this - and this is why I didn't so much with this - I so want to go to Berlin !!!!!
But, what makes me feel that something is up is that there is not much presence about this fest out there apart from their website. I really hope that I am wrong - but so far a search on the director brings up nothing, a search on some of the films shown last year brings up nothing, there is a lot of spam in the comments section of their website that hasn't been taken down.....the list goes on.
Hopefully I am wrong. I FB'd the cinema in which it is playing and they said it is booked and they will get all the films info next week. The acceptance email said to email and tell them if you can make it to intro your film and let them know when a good time would be - I did twice and no answer.
Am I being paranoid??? I so want this FF to be good and, having travelled to a few os fests with my little film, I am a true ambassador for and lover of the little fests.
Hope I am wrong. Will check out twitter now.
And thanks once again for answering me, I am new to these boards and love the global camaraderie that this can bring.
Best
D
