The 50th Atlanta Film Festival: From Premiere to Next Year panel! Kudos to the @atlantafilmfestival bringing back the creators of @metatakeonefilm , @colorbookfilm , and @withdrawalfilm to @thetaraatlanta today. It was awesome seeing @bydave_fortune (now also @scaddotedu professor), @kiah.alexandria , @strandedonstage , @madi_fi , and @johndierre together to talk about their films that played last year at the ATLFF. It was a wonderful conversation and the panel highlights the impact local filmmakers have in Georgia! #ATLFF50 #atlfilmsociety #thetaraatlanta #filmmaking
