Whether you're a film journalist, filmmaker, programmer or distributor, you likely experience a time of the year where it feels like you practically live on the film festival circuit. Personally, I'm coming off an eight week stint where I did just that via stops at festivals in Toronto, New York, Reykjavik, London, Vienna and Copenhagen. I never bothered coming home in between, figuring it wasn't worth the time or the carbon footprint. While that may sound a bit insane, it's definitely not something I alone have experienced. And there's certainly folks who will experience it for the first time soon enough. So I figured why not offer up a brief, highly subjective list of tips I've learned over this and previous stints on the circuit that may or may not be somewhat useful to those of you that have a similar journeys on tap in the future. 1.
