Filmmaker Panel at Independent Film Week to Focus on

Producing Low-Budget Features on Film

NEW YORK, September 22, 2015 — A panel featuring award-winning filmmakers Ferne Pearlstein (Imelda), producer Adam Piotrowicz (Listen Up Philip), director Ari Taub (79 Parts) and cinematographer Franco G. DeMarco (Hedwig and the Angry Inch Worm) will explore the process of creating low-budget features on film here at IFP’s Annual Independent Film Week. Kodak, a Premier Sponsor of IFP Week, will host the seminar on September 23 at 11:00 a.m. in the Bruno Walter Auditorium (111 Amsterdam Avenue, at 65th Street).

“Realizing Your Vision on a Budget,” which is open to conference-goers, will explore the panelists’ real-world experiences in bringing their project to the big screen on motion picture film without breaking the bank. Moderated by Scott Macaulay, editor-in-chief of Filmmaker Magazine, the panel will focus on the filmmakers’ choices and the benefits they reaped.

“This is a great opportunity for filmmakers to hear first-hand about how easy and affordable it is to tell their story on motion picture film,” says Andrew Evenski, president and general manager for Entertainment & Commercial Films at Kodak. “We’re committed to helping independent filmmakers tell their unique stories and realize their vision on film.”
