Getting ready for Sundance 2009.

Tuesday, January 13th, 2009

Sundance Logo

Sundance is first up to kick off another year of film festivals. It’s always exciting and a little stressful preparing to be away from home and office.  Thank God we have such a phenomenal team at IndieFlix.  Looking at my calendar of panels, screenings, events and meetings I feel a little overwhelmed already.  Thank goodness I’m staying right on Main Street.  No waiting in bathroom lines for me this year; though it seems that’s where I usually run into the people I’m supposed to meet.

I guess I am somewhat of a Sundance Veteran. The last few years my colleagues and I confess that we might skip Sundance and focus on SXSW. We all seem to get much more actual business done in Austin but each year we still end up going to Park City.  There’s just no other festival like it.  It’s a bit like a high school reunion.  When I was a filmmaker I would have given my eyeteeth to go to Sundance, sleep in a condo with 22 other people, wait in long lines and spend every penny I had just to see new, original films and hit the parties.  Now I need to be on Main Street. I like to be on the party invite list and I have most of my meetings set before I get there but this year is slightly different. I want to allow myself the opportunity to discover and experience the festival with new eyes.

This year there are a lot of films directed by Seattle filmmakers in the festival. So, it will be somewhat familial in feeling and of course very fun. I see that social agenda for filmmakers and distributors is high on the priority list of topics to cover– that’s certainly good.  I always like to serve a cause but only if we can keep it interesting and it makes sense.  I hope we don’t get inundated with too many “goodie two shoes” films.

Well, back to packing…
