Indie Film Blogger Road Trip @ Atlanta Film Festival in April, & @ New Vision Cinema, NYC in March or April

Both of these items re: IFBRT is slightly old news & I don't have any new details on either screening event yet, but, for those who are just hearing about Indie Film Blogger Road Trip - from press generated by its 2/17 premiere in NYC - there will be at least a couple of chances to see the doc over the next two months - as a part of the New Vision Cinema screening series that takes place in NYC (in March or April), & as a part of the 2009 Atlanta Film Festival, which takes place in April. Should have details about both events w/ in the next two to three weeks, & will post all the info. here.

People who are not in NYC or Atlanta should be able to catch the doc on the web both as a part of Atlanta Film Fest (streaming is a part of the fest's planned presentation of the doc) & then later, starting in May or June, in several parts/episodes at Blip.tv. Of course DVDs of the doc will be available at some point from me/Wild Diner Films between now & the middle of this year - will post the DVD ordering info. at this blog as soon as they are available.

The case for using AI for indie film reviews (if tech is developed to be able to write good reviews)

Regardless of how it is presented to the public, everything in US film (and probably worldwide) - Hollywood and indie - is about money.  If you have the money, you can make and release films, buy ads in publications, and get reviews.  There are 200+ reviews for a mediocre Hollywood movie now at Rotten Tomatoes site - for the new Fantastic Four movie. At the same time there were less than 10 reviews for an indie movie that was playing at IFC Center in NYC last week. Outside of even IFC runs, there are 100s of indie movies - fiction features and doc features - that come out on VOD and YouTube every week these days that do not get reviewed and do not get any articles written about them. With some effort I and many other indie filmmakers are able to get some reviews for our movies. However, the vast majority of new indie films are not reviewed. Film is art, it is easier to make and release films now than it was in the past, and all films deserve reviews and articles about them. ...
