SXSW Interactive Festival 2009 – We need you!

How would you like to see a “Virtual Filmmaking” panel at next year’s South by South West Interactive festival?

We have suggested such a panel to the SXSW organizers and they are very enthusiastic. However we need your help if it is to take place. Our suggested panel topic is just one of hundreds, and the organizers use a democratic method to chose which one makes it to the event.

Panel Picker voting has just gone live on the event site.

Please click HERE to place your vote for the “Virtual Filmmaking for Pre-visualization, Pitching and Machinima” panel that we’ve proposed. The more stars the better!

It’s sure to be a big success at an event which brings together so many cutting-edge movie geeks and up-and-coming indie filmmakers

The SXSW Interactive Festival features five days of exciting panel content and amazing parties. Attracting digital creatives as well as visionary technology entrepreneurs, the event celebrates the best minds and the brightest personalities of emerging technology.
