Film festivals provide the opportunity for upcoming filmmakers from around the world to showcase stheir work to large audiences of cinema fans and elite members of the filmmaking industry. Film festivals are typically an annual event, held over a course of a week or more hosted in the city of their choice. Now film festivals are turning to mobile apps to boosts their events into the future.
When discussing film festivals, the most iconic of the film festivals come to mind– referred to by the film industry as the “Big Three” the Cannes Film Festival, the Berlin International Film Festival (Berlinale), and Venice Film Festival – La Biennale di Venezia . These festivals, two of which date back to the 1930s, are known as a reference point for the film industry and serve as inspiration for the close to 3,000+ film festivals held around the world.
Over the ye
ars, both the Cannes and Berlin Film Festival, along with other important film festivals such as the Sitges Film Festival in Barcelona have taken an enormous leap toward technology, seeking tomodernize their Film Festivals by adopting their very own Film Festival Mobile App.
By opting for a film festival app, organizers are able to enable the attendees to make the most of their film festival experience. The festival app provides a dynamic agenda of activities with the entirety the festivals’ events available at their guests’ fingertips, enables real-time communication between the festival organizers and its attendees, can provide up-to-date information on the day’s film sessions and screenings via push notifications. Other benefits include an increase in overall ticket sales and reduced costs and waste previously incurred by brochures and other printed material.
Attendees are able to create a personalized planner before the event by reading all about the films on the festival app and marking select films as their “Favorites”. Once at the festival, push notifications from the organizers help inform them of last minute screenings or special events throughout the festival. The app can enable an increased level of interaction with the films and the film community- with the capability to vote, pose a question, chat and/or fill out a survey on the film they have just seen.
