#13: Filmmaker and journalist Meredith Alloway on making films, submitting for festivals, & managing emotions

Filmmaker and journalist Meredith Alloway shares the “behind the scenes” of being an independent filmmaker, a journalist, submitting to film festivals and so much more. She’s contributed to Film Maker Magazine, Playboy, and Vanity Fair to name a few, and has had films at SXSW, Indy Film Fest, The Overlook Festival, and Montclair Film Festival.

Her film Deep Tissue was at SXSW 2019’s Midnight Shorts Competition. She talks about reaching out to festival programmers, etiquette, explains film terms to me, and managing emotions around rejection and collaboration.
