Photography shoot, closing, and event score card
As the film festival came to an end, I gathered everyone outside and took
some pictures. The photographs came out
well, and one of my favorites was the one of Andy and Rick for the cover
of this review. The only regret that I have about the photography is that
I did not get more pictures of the guest of honor, actress Joyce Meadows,
or at least some pictures of her by herself. I’ll have to chalk
that up to a lesson learned, I suppose.
Fandomonium in Tampa Bay Film Festival Event 001 Scorecard
Concept
(1-10): 7
A pretty good concept for an even and film festival by Andy Lalino
and Rick Danford, although I have to admit that I am not crazy
about the branding. Still, it works, and works well. I was really
impressed by their art direction with the branding, too.
Venue
(1-10): 6
This was my second visit to the “Candy” venue, and this
time, I did not get lost because I knew where I was going. I like the
Tampa Pitcher Show as a venue. It works. Why do I call it Candy? Because
that is the sign over its actual location.
Vendors
(1-10): 5
This is average because they really did not have a lot of venders
and people selling anything. The venue lobby can easily handle six to
eight times more if you pack them in tight with rows of tables.
Organization
(1-10): 7
Not bad, although I wish that they would make a program available,
which should be a no-brainier because the organizers know what is going
on, and they should communicate it. It would make covering the event easier,
too.
Entertainment
(1-10): 8
There was some solid entertainment at this event and film festival.
It was fun!
Attendance
(1-10): 6
A little above average. This event deserved a better attendance, but
there was a good crowd there.
Features
(1-10): 7
The interview with actress Joyce Meadows by Joel Wynkoop was
EPIC. Because of bad timing, I was not able to set up a tripod
and had to shoot the over 40 minute interview freehand, which was painful
and tiring, but so worth it. It also led to a situation where I had to
shoot both video and photography at the same time, which I was not sure
that I could do, but pulled it off.
Admission
Value (1-10): 8
Worth missing a day of work over and attending. It was fun, and I’d
attend again.
Overall
Event Score (1-10): 8
For the debut of what could be a flagship event and film festival,
it went well. This event was pretty good, and well worth attending.
