March Notes
Just as we promised, we won’t be going away! We will still be sending the occasional missive and putting on a monthly event. More info on that below, plus some buzz around the Oscars, April social media holidays to keep an eye out for, and more.

*****
This month is our month. Women’s history month. Everyone has something to showcase around women in film this month. Here’s a great list of some of the most iconic female characters in film history.
If you are an actor, do a monologue from your favorite film of old, or the one that made you want to be an actor.
Director…same thing? And, so on.
And, even though we aren’t doing the paid marketing group, we will be continuing our monthly sessions on zoom…
March Marketing Session - What role will AI play in the film Industry?
Will it replace scoring for films? Storyboards? Screenwriting? What you need to know, and how will it affect independent film makers? There are those that say it levels the playing field; people will be able to make films without the huge budget that is currently needed to play with the big kids. Register below.

Oscar Buzz
The Oscars are just a few days away! If there’s a film, writer, director, producer nominated that you connect to, say something about it. Tweet it, post on your stories, write a blog for your website.
If you attended the last Zoom session on IMDB, you might have heard Christine talk about, “The Martha Mitchell Effect,” produced by Beth Levison. Read more from Hollister's review of Netflix's Academy Award nominated documentary short The Martha Mitchell Effect. You don't want to miss this film all about the infamous #MarthaMitchell. Good luck to the film's entire team! We’ll be rooting for you on Sunday.

Christine also reviewed Women Talking for Screen Thoughts. The film is nominated in the Best Film category and is one you very well may not have heard of. No one knows how it got there, but Christine can now tell you how and why. You can read her full review here.
