Comparing my festival research with the research of my colleagues. I was most interested in how each festival marketed itself. for example, Twin Rivers doesn't market itself as a "film festival," instead it holds the title of a multimedia festival. Similar to how SXSW isn't strictly a film festival, as it is an event which focuses on the evolution of media culture in general - film, TV, music, art. I was also interested in how the festivals were marketed to locals. Zoe, talks about how the festival she researched had a section for films made entirely in texas, juried by texans. I like when a festival uses it's landscape and setting to it's advantage.
The research that I completed on my coleagues' completed research found a ver encouraging case for crowd-funding movements like indiegogo and kickstarter, which our team had already planned on implementing, even though Twin Rivers didn't have an apparent crowd-fund campaign.
