Summary: Don't leave for the festival without it!
Comment: I was in the market for a festival, and Chris Gore's book was recommended by a fellow filmmaker. It turned out to be the perfect resource for a festival "virgin" because he gives real information about the festival experience, combined with real experiences from other filmmakers.
Most novice filmmakers I know expect the world to beat a path to their film, but Chris Gore gives you a more practical marketing plan to help the festivals, distributors, and audiences discover the work of art you have created.
For me, the best part of the book was the filmmaker "war stories," where experienced festival-ers give us the inside story of what the festivals were like and how they affected the success of their pictures.
Other chapters include hiring a publicist, developing a website, a complete listing of festivals and the Gore-rated top ten fests.
If you are considering entering or attending a film festival, or if your'e just wondering what they are all about, you must read The Ultimate Film Festival Survival Guide.

Summary: Funniest and best book ever on exploding film fest scene!
Comment: Ultimate film fest guide
Chris Gore, the founder of Film Threat magazine, has finally published his much anticipated "essentialcompanion for filmmakers & festival goers." The WVIFF is listed on page 231, along with the Wine CountryFilm Fest, the Washington, D.C. Filmfest, and is across the page from two Virginia film fests. The book isvery current and well-produced, including good lists of festivals by month and genre. His lists of the bestbars and best breakfast places are interesting, and his "power invitation list for festival screenings and parties" is worth the price of the book. Lone Eagle, a new Hollywood based film industry publisher, createdthe book. Gore ranks Sundance and the Toronto Film Fest as two of the most important. Every film personand video fanatic should own this book. Although Gore no longer publishes "Film Threat" (the best film mag ever), he does send out a free weekly mag, which is also a must for all videophiles.-from "Film Nuts",Graffiti magazine, Charleston,WV

Summary: A Requirement For All Filmmakers
Comment: If there is one SINGLE book that every filmmaker should have, it is this one!
Chris Gore has done a community service to all indie filmmakers by putting together a book that comprehensively lists, almost, every single film festival out there, with tips on how to get accepted and how one's approach should be towards acceptance
While the book isn't necessarily based upon financing and distribution (however, it has major tidbits upon that) it truly is a wonderful read upon the film festival/independent world and what it will take find success within it
If you're an indie filmmaker like myself looking to enter your films (whether they be shorts or features, or docs) then GRAB THIS BOOK ---- if you're a film lover and a festival-goer, then I also recommend it, as I have yet to see a more comprehensive guide put together, regarding festivals
A MUST READ FOR ALL FILMMAKERS AND LOVERS
Thank you for reading and thank you for the time!
Keep up the good work Chris Gore! Us Filmmakers OWE YOU BIG
