Going to the IFP Market?

Are you headed to New York from September 16-19 for the annual Independent Film Project (IFP) Market? This has become one of the key events for American documentary filmmakers to get a foothold with festivals, distributors, and other industry folks by having a place to screen and promote their works in progress. Many of the docs first spotlighted at IFP have gone on to bigger and better things.

We'll be featuring a story on the IFP Market from the perspective of two Docs in Progress alums in our October online newsletter, but, in the meantime we'd also recommend you take a look at two recent articles from Agnes Varnum, one which appeared in indieWIRE and the other on RenewMedia.
