Film festivals have always made for a good time, but recent technological innovations, such as larger-than-life inflatable movie screens, make today’s festivals even more exciting! Now you can take advantage of mild spring and summer evenings to screen films outdoors in high definition and with cutting edge sound on an inflatable movie screen. If you want your next film festival to run smoothly, then be sure these three “must haves” are on your list:
1. A Common Theme
While it is good to have a variety of film genres at your festival, try to find a common theme that is shared amongst the film lineup. Having a theme makes it much easier to advertise the festival, and themed festivals will seem better organized and therefore more appealing to attendees.
2. Inflatable Movie Screens
There is no better way to present a highly anticipated film for the fist time than on a gigantic inflatable movie screen in a dramatic outdoor setting. Inflatable movie screens vary in height and width, so you can rent smaller ones for movies that are likely to draw smaller turnouts and get an enormous inflatable screen and projector for the movies that you feel will be the highlights of the festival.
3. A Public Relations Team
Hiring a public relations team or even a single publicist will help draw attention to your film festival, giving it legitimacy and notoriety. It will also make your independent movie directors thankful for the opportunity to get some press without having to hire their own press agents. Keep in mind that inflatable projector screens will help serve as great PR tools because they draw the attention of passersby and create a lot of buzz around an event.
