Findings After Reading Festival Interviews

Perhaps the most impressive thing that I learned while reading these blog posts was just how many large festivals there are in the nation, and how differently each one handles their programming process. Staffs ranged from 2 people, and all the way up to over 400 if you count volunteers. That is insane. I couldn't believe that some festivals gathered thousands of entries for a single year. We get quite a few, but I can't even begin to imagine the time required to sort through all those movies, papers, and screenplays.
