3rd year running ops @bendfilmfestival
the team added a day to the festival, welcomed over 100 filmmakers to town, hosted 110 screenings, 70 Q&As, 10 events, and 4 industry panels across 5 days and 17 venues.
with the support of 150 volunteers, 50+ fest staffers, our large base of community supporters, and a dedicated in-house team who pours life into this nonprofit, our annual big screen binge celebrates independent filmmaking. i’m so proud to work alongside this community of creatives ✨
