Nashville Means Business at FilmNashville's Belcourt Town Hall ...

Nashville Means Business at FilmNashville's Belcourt Town Hall Meeting

Posted by Jim Ridley on Mon, Feb 18, 2013 at 2:05 PM

If you want to get caught up on the latest events, issues and concerns in the local film and TV community, the place to be is The Belcourt for tomorrow night's annual Town Hall Meeting, sponsored by the nonprofit organization FilmNashville. Now in its 10th year, the meeting is FilmNashville's last major event before April's Film-Com Week, a film-market flurry of panels, screenings, and meetings with visiting film professionals and decision-makers.

Even without the yearly presentation of the Nashy Award for outstanding contributions to the growth of the city's film and cultural community ? this year's recipient is Beth Curley, president/CEO of Nashville Public Television ? there'll be plenty on the local film industry's mind, from the ongoing impact of ABC's Nashville on the local crew base to the never-ending discussion over production incentives.

Mayor Karl Dean will be on hand to present the Nashy, while WSMV anchor and documentary filmmaker Demetria Kalodimos serves as MC. In addition to those above, the meeting will feature brief updates from leaders representing area film festivals, trade organizations, broadcast entities, film schools and more. The event is free and open to the public, with a cash bar open until 11 p.m.

A full list of participating groups follows:
