Back from the AIMC

It has been a few weeks since our last entry as we have been busy working on the doco after our week away at the Movie Convention.

AIMC was a good trip for us. We met a lot of distributors, exhibitors and filmmakers. We saw a few new movies and enjoyed schmoozing by the bar late into the night. (On a side note; Andrew earned a reputation as the quickest 'business card slinger' at the convention with his smooth slight of hand, wooing the ladies and guys alike).

We were able to conduct some interesting interviews, including, Mark Gooder (Icon), Robert Reeve (Becker Entertainment), Gerald Hensley (DTS) and Mark Sarfaty (Ex-Head of Dendy cinemas). We also learnt a lot about the future of the industry and will continue to research the current issues and make further contact with possible interviewees.
