Film Festival Research and Contacts.

Evidence of emails and tweets for film festival research.
For the purposes of my current assignment, the criteria outlines that we must successfully contact a film festival organizer or film maker, plan and arrange to interview them and document the interview.

I have tweeted and emailed a number of film festivals, festival organizers and directors and will display them below as evidence.

https://twitter.com/master_django/status/336116244853972993 - This link is the tweet I sent to South Yorkshire film network, requesting if they could do my questionnaire to add to my research.

Recently I emailed Elliot Grove the creator of Raindance film festival and I requested that he do my questionnaire, Elliot responded very helpfully and despite his busy schedule is going to my questionnaire.
