Happy Sunday to all my creative friends. Hope you're all having an awesome weekend.
First up for Coffee & Content this week, with so many Stage 32 members creating short films and short form digital content, I thought it might be worth having a look at Filmmaker IQ's recent video How to Get Your Short Screened at Film Festivals. Certainly interested in hearing your thoughts on this one!
Next, from our friends at Cinefix, yet another comprehensive video. This time, it's a look at 2 brilliant moments in editing from 2 fantastic films: Ida and No Country for Old Men.
As always, my only ask is that you pay it forward and share the Coffee & Content blog with those you feel would benefit from viewing the content.
And of course, comments welcome below!
Enjoy the content!
Cheers!
RB

Well, we are really, really excited to announce a new relationship with Fest Forums in Santa Barbara.

FestForums brings together festivals and events of all sizes including representatives from such great organizations as Toronto International Film Festival, Seattle International Film Festival, San Luis Obispo Film Festival, the Academy of Motion Picture Art and Sciences and more.

Stage 32 is proud to be the co-curator of the festivals film screenings and we will be featuring an incredible film lineup in the Cinetransfomer theater including:
WORLD PREMIERE OF JEFF BRIDGE'S NEW FILM TRAILER - Living in the Future's Past by Jeff Bridges & Susan Kucera

Our one and only fearless leader, RB, will be on site all weekend doing Q&As with the filmmakers after their screenings. We always strive to put our filmmakers in the best possible positions for success and being able to screen Lisanne's film to this festival filled with festival directors and do a Q&A is really exciting.
Joel Coen, Ethan Coen, T Bone Burnett
On Saturday, November 18, after our lineup of films, Joel and Ethan Coen will be interviewing Oscar-winner T Bone Burnett on stage to talk about their decades long filmmaker / composer relationship on films such as O Brother Where Art Thou and Inside Llewyln Davis.
If you are in or around the LA area, we highly encourage you to attend FestForums for networking.
