The 14th Annual Long Island International Film Expo takes place, showcasing independent filmmakers. Some 115 films will be shown.
The festival features short and feature-length independent films of varied genres from all over the globe. Long Island Film/TV Foundation The Long Island International Film Expo starts with the opening night party that is by invitation only. Participating filmmakers, sponsors, dignitaries, board members, press and media are invited to this informal gathering. Several panels are held during the first weekend of the Long Island International Film Expo – usually consisting of a distribution panel, a scriptwriting panel, legal music panel and a filmmaker panel and breakfast.
Once the winners of the Long Island International Film Expo are chosen by a combination of audience ballot and judging committee, they are honored at the Long Island International Film Expo Closing Night Party and Awards Ceremony, where they receive their trophies and winners' prizes (which vary every year from free editing time, DVDs, free rentals of lights, etc.). Actor Ed Byrne is expected to attend the closing ceremony, as is Nassau County Executive Ed Mangano.
