Festivals: You’re in! Now What?

Getting into a film festival is exciting—but what comes next can make the experience even more rewarding. Join filmmakers Andrew Nadkarni (Between the Earth & Sky), Kirstine Barfod (Black Snow), and strategist Chris Albert (Albert Media Group) as they share insights on how to navigate your festival run, from advice on connecting with industry folks and marketing your film to insights on working with the festival programming team and the press to maximize opportunities.

Tickets are $19 ($14 for IFC Center members). Tickets are non-refundable.

All registrants can join the live session and will receive the recording, transcript, chat, and slides (if available). All materials will be sent via email within a few business days after the event.

Keep the Conversation Going: Don’t stop the learning! Head straight to a separate Zoom room (link shared during the event) for an exclusive post-event discussion with Malikkah and fellow attendees.

Special Offer: All PRO registrants are invited to a separate, complimentary, peer-to-peer consulting session. Engage in small group consultations where filmmakers walk away with concrete insight into a current dilemma. It’s a unique opportunity for collaborative learning and meaningful exchanges. A follow-up email with joining details will be sent to all registrants.

Questions: If you have questions about registration, please email ticketing@docnyc.net. For questions about accommodations and accessibility, including requests for live ASL interpretation, please email accessibility@docnyc.net.
