FootageFest ‘20 Goes Virtual

/

Although the organizers of FootageFest '20 cancelled their Fall conference in Los Angeles earlier this year, the success of their recent webinars has proven that a virtual conference will be heavily attended.  AMCUP -- the trade organization that created FootageFest three years ago -- has produced a half-dozen webinars over the COVID lockdown, covering such popular topics as licensing viral videos and acquiring news content, highlighted by none other than one of Heather Bennett's amazing legal panels -- all of which have had an average of 100-120 viewers!  

FootageFest '20 will be streaming during the week of October 12th -- and will be absolutely free to view and participate in nearly 20 webinars and virtual events.  Produced by Founders Steven Kozak and Dominic Dare, this is just a sample of the eclectic panels:

  • Acquiring Famous Political Moments in History

  • International Fair Use Panel, featuring attorneys from Canada, Mexico, US and the UK

  • Acquiring and Using Celebrity Content

  • Tools and Short Cuts for Researching Documentaries

  • Licensing Content to Film & TV Studios
