Aron and I just returned from Independent Film Week (IFP Market) in New York City. For the filmmakers out there, you NEED to attend this week when your film is close to ready. There were 75 documentary films chosen for this week. We had the opportunity to meet with key film festival programmers and distributors. One on one meetings are arranged with industry professionals who are interested in your film. We came to NYC with a number of meetings and then had just as many side meetings while we were there.
One of the highlights of the week was meeting other filmmakers who were accomplished in their own right and were working hard on some amazing projects as well.
For a few years now, other filmmakers told us we should apply to IFW. I now know why so many people talk about IFW. This week will not only benefit The Way We Get By but also our future projects!

17th Annual NetIP Conference in Boston
Aron and I had a chance to speak at the 17th Annual NetIP Conference in Boston on Sunday about The Way We Get By. It was amazing to see how people responded to the trailer and wanted to get involved in supporting social issue films. Young professionals around the country are helping us promote The Way We Get By and it was great to receive such support from this well-established group.
