Ingrid Moon, Phil Rice, Damien Valentine and myself are all working overtime to make this event unique and interesting to those who attend. <BR/><BR/>We are carefully trying to program and present a festival experience that is different from the New York Fest. We are emphasizing a "hands-on" approach at the Expo with multiple practical workshops. We are also featuring a keynote speaker (at this point we hope to bring over Mike Jones, but that's not definite at this point) and we are awarding "jury prizes" to 6 of the most interesting and accomplished films. <BR/><BR/>What we hope is that many people will be able to attend BOTH the New York Festival and the Machinima Expo. I'll certainly be a both events.Ricky Grovehttp://www.blogger.com/profile/03588565441793716202noreply@blogger.com
