Show Notes

*Please note, this was recorded in the “Good Old Days” before COVID19
Brian has worked in the film festival circuit for over 15 years, founding the Indianapolis International Film Festival in 2004 and working with the Nashville Film Festival for over a decade. His contributions doubled and quadrupled their respective audiences, which in turn fueled the economy and added to the culture of each city. Brian believes the same can be done here in Calgary. 

During our conversation, Brain explains why the Calgary International Film Festival is a viable economic driver for our city and how it can help redefine our image to the world.
