Film Festivals: Screening Formats & Technical Specs

Film Festival Hacks is the podcast that explores the festival circuit “from both sides of the badge.” Alex Ferrari is an award-winning filmmaker with nearly 600 international film festivals under his belt. He’s joined by Chris Holland, author of Film Festival Secrets: A Handbook for Independent Filmmakers who has worked closely with more than 200 film festivals including Sundance, AFI Fest, and SXSW. Together we explore the hidden world of film festival programming and pass along tips that give you that critical edge in the festival submissions game.

In episode 6 you’ll get the skinny on what are the proper screening formats for film festivals today. We talk about technical specs, formats, what Sundance requires and where and when to spend money on deliverables. Enjoy!
