feels like the first time
NH Film Expo was good. American Fair played Saturday morning. Watching the film with an audience in a theater was a thrill.
The film recieved great praise from the audience during the Q & A. One of the nicest comments came from Dan Hannon, that the film had "heart".
I met the director of the Philadelphia Film Festival and a Film Threat exec. I also had many nice though brief encounters with local film execs, producers and directors. It seems that there is some local money interested in making films, and a growing number of film-makers with New England roots or connections.
The opportunity to show my film, listen to feedback, and meet new friends with a passion for film gives me encouragement. American Fair is special.
I'm currently arranging local and regional screenings for American Fair, and awaiting decisions from upcoming film fests. Stay tuned!
