Do most film festivals require premiere status? A question from @MarBelle, the Editor-in-Chief of @WeAreDN, made me curious to find out. I studied the rules of 10,549 film festivals to see how many still insist on a premiere and how many don’t.

Saddened to read that @ShootingPeople is to close in October. But what an incredible legacy it leaves. It has been a wonderful resource that has championed both filmmakers and actors, and has unquestionably aided the career development of all those involved in filmmaking.
