The New Orleans Video Access Center gave a party last month, and way too many of us missed it. Here’s the story:
NOVAC Web Weekend: Recapping A Memorable Beginning To An Important New Event For Web Series Creators
by Chris Hadley
Recently in New Orleans, a unique event brought together the best minds from the web series industry, along with some of the best creators of original content for the web. Web Weekend, a two day series of screenings and panels held by the New Orleans Video Access Center (NOVAC) in conjunction with the New Orleans Film Festival, provided attendees (this writer included) with ample opportunities to meet fellow filmmakers and to gain valuable insight on various issues relating to the industry, as well as ways to build audiences and to create quality content. NOVAC Web Weekend began on Friday, October 18th with Think Tank, which took place downtown at Launch Pad NOLA. Think Tank provided creators of many locally produced web series like SUNKEN CITY and LEAST FAVORITE LOVE SONGS ample opportunities to network with, and get valuable feedback from, their fellow filmmakers.
