People are often so caught up on the business & networking aspect of film festivals that they completely miss the opportunity to deconstruct the emotional journey filmmakers are thrust into. Going from cutting your teeth and scraping together micro budgets to watching mass amounts of people watch your work in a theatre can be quite a shock. Ryan Coogler (Fruitvale Station) and Jordan Vogt-Roberts (The Kings of Summer) want to anchor a panel where they bring on other filmmakers to discuss how we all internally processed the whirlwind of premiering our films and subsequently releasing them into the world.
Making movies is an incredibly rewarding process but it's also beyond exhausting mentally and physically. By bringing in several of our friends and colleagues, we want to discuss the emotional and how we individually adapted to get through it. Everyone has a different path and we want our guests to represent several different routes.
