Film Festivals
Most of us know that the odds of making it in Hollywood are pretty close to the odds of winning the lottery. It is my opinion that film festivals are the way to go. What are some that you know of that promote the cause of the Gospel?
The reason I ask is because I don't think there are very many. I have attached a link to one I am aware of, this one helps young filmmakers by giving them an opportunity at a degree at a Christian film school: http://reeldreamsfilmfest.com
