Chris Loukides Interviews Janis Plotkin

My Music Media Box

Indo Music Code Generator by musik-live.net

Janis Plotkin shares with us how she got into film and programming festivals. She talks about her experience directing the SF Jewish Film Festival from its beginnings and now the Mill Valley Film Festival. She also talks about how festival programming has changed over the years, how she liked to use the Jewish Film festival to break negative stereotypes about Jews, and how she always looks for films that do this for all ethnic groups, presenting them in a new light. Thanks again Janis : )

Publicity and Marketing notes from 3-12-10 brain storming:

- Ask Professors that we have connections with to offer extra credit for going to or entering films into the film finals

- presenting to classes (production ones are best probably) and have flyers and call for submissions if they want on

- designing and printing posters for around campus (fine arts building, Cesar Chavez: banners in and outside of

- get ad on the flat screen in Cesar Chavez building, I have the paper work

- Putting ads on screen savers in computer labs, ask scott about it, I monitor the digital cinema lab

- a night time projection on campus with music, popular movie clips, our trailer, tattoos? (Paul's idea), live animation with over head (also Paul's idea)

- have scott and cinema collective e mail the call to submissions to their mailing lists

- press release to me put and papers and other media outlets

- maybe have an item that goes with the theme on campus, like gold balloons, fake gold bars, etc. (if we go with golden anniversary theme)
