Last year, I stole a good idea from some other Austin-bound bloggers and solicited filmmakers whose work had been accepted to screen at the South by Southwest film festival to send me their films ahead of time, thus improving the chances of me seeing and reviewing them. This year, I can just steal the idea from my 2008 self. So here’s the deal: if you are a filmmaker with a film screening at SXSW 2009, and you’d like to generate a bit of coverage, get in touch. The regular disclaimer applies: I have a paying job that often gets in the way of me writing about films, and so I cannot guarantee that I’ll review your work in a timely fashion. In fact, I can’t guarantee I’ll review it period. But I’ll do my best, depending on response, etc. Email me at james@ this domain and I’ll let you know my coordinates. Oh, and by the way, congratulations! SXSW is an important festival, Austin is a great town, and you are going to have a blast if you can make it there in person.
Some examples of my SXSW film coverage from last year.
