SXSW: An Insider's Guide

The early-December final deadline for the SXSW Film Festival looms large for Texas filmmakers every year. Here’s your chance to hear from SXSW Film Festival Producer Matt Dentler exactly what the programming team is looking for (and NOT looking for) when they open up the submission packets.

Should you call the festival every week to make sure they received your package? This is your chance to get the answers in person before the Dec. 7th final deadline.
