The Film Panel Notetaker

I met several international filmmakers with shorts and feature length narratives and documentaries from such countries as Israel, Mexico, Australia and more Monday night during a press meet & greet at the Tribeca Target Filmmaker Lounge. The list below are the filmmakers I met with schedules of their films for the remainder of the festival. To view their pictures, please click here.

In addition to meeting all these great filmmakers, I also met Wei Ling Chang, a 2006 Tribeca All Access alumn whose screenplay The FixPoint, a time travel paradox, will be presented as a staged reading as part of TAA On Track, platform for selected festival alums to pitch their feature projects. There will be a screening of Chang’s short reel (including award winning shorts that screened in Cannes, Sitges, Buenos Aires, Beijing, etc.) followed by a stage reading of excerpts from THE FIXPOINT on Tues, April 29 at 3PM at City Cinemas Village East, 181 2nd Ave, Theatre 5. The event is open to all industry badge holders.
