making it in Indie TV
former grad school professors and their BFFs. That’s where ITVFest
changes the game. The winners are chosen based on the ballots cast by
the audiences who come to the screenings, and meanwhile, the network
buyers and online streamers are right there with everyone else taking
notes on which kinds of programming those viewers want to watch.
“There were thousands of talented, but unknown artists trying to break
into the television industry,” Gilpin says, “and when YouTube launched
and other self-distribution platforms were suddenly available on the
internet, these artists gained a worldwide audience of tens of millions
of people almost overnight. At ITVFest, we put the most talented artists
among them front and center for the public, as well as for the industry.
Most of what we do is activism for artists. We are supporting and
growing new careers in television and for online outlets.”
Scoop this! We’re not necessarily hinting that they are oh-so tardy to
recognize the excellence of non-cinema programming, but it was recently
reported that Cannes, too, wants a television festival by 2018. Nice idea.
However, diehard viewers already know what’s chic in indie television is
not on the French Riviera–it’s already happening right here and right
now in Manchester, a charming New England village tucked beneath the
3,840-foot peak of the utterly scenic Equinox Mountain. •
