Cincinnati has become more and more popular in recent years, as Hollywood descends onto the Tri-State to film their movies in one of the most versatile areas of the country. You're just about 15 minutes away from farmland to the city, nationally-recognized architecture that provides that New York City look at a fraction of the production cost. Today's show is about the local, independent film makers who write, produce and promote their own projects, hoping to get their work in front of the curious public. The Cindependent Film Festival is September 19-21 at Memorial Hall in downtown Cincinnati. University of Cincinnati graduate and founder Allyson West tells us how she created the festival in 2018, which has been awarded a 'Top 100 Best Reviewed Film Festival,' and the 'Best Filmmaker-Focused Festival in Cincinnati' by Cincinnati CityBeat. In this show she also addresses the finalist designation for Cincinnati as a possible future location for the Sundance Film Festival, one of the most important Film Festivals in the world, (competing against current home Park City, UT and contestant Boulder, CO.)  Cindependent Film FestivalSundance Film FestivalSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
