'Digital Democratization of Film' Discussed Monday

The next meeting of the New Hampshire Film & Television Office Discussion Series is scheduled for Monday, November 17 at 6 p.m. at NEC Concord, 62 North Main Street in Concord.

This month’s topic is “The Digital Democratization of Film.”

Democratization of technology is defined as “the process by which access to technology rapidly continues to become more accessible to more people.” Has the growth and accessibility of digital technology in production and distribution made it easier (or more difficult) to be a filmmaker? Are there (or should there be) different schools of thought between being a “filmmaker” and simply creating digital content? What does being a filmmaker really mean? This month’s free-form conversation will explore the cultural and industry impact of digital democratization in filmmaking both on a broad scope and at a local level.

The series is free and open to filmmakers, media production professionals, students and the general public. Attendees drive the conversation and will also have time to network. Future meetings will continue to address issues that affect the state’s film, television and media production community.

Contact the New Hampshire Film & Television Office at 603-271-2220 or film@nh.gov with questions or for more information.

The New Hampshire Film & Television Office Discussion Series is presented in partnership with NEC Concord and held on the third Monday of every month.
