to shed a bit of light on this. ok, the place that we are holding
the conference is called Pittsburgh filmmakers. they have two
theaters in the building. that weekend, they will be showing the
film "B.I.K.E.," kinda inspired by us, but also because of a local
film dude wanted to bring it to town. we're working out the details
to get conference goers a reduced ticket, but in all reality, it is
only $5. that will probably be running at like 7 or 8 ish.
what we could do afterwards when it gets dark (maybe gotta talk with
some folks) is have a ride that nite to somewhere outdoors where we
can set up a projector (i have one) and we can screen everyone's
movies. if it's raining, we could potentially use one of the large
rooms at filmmakers. i'd rather an outdoor movie thing tho. Friday
nite would make the most sense for this.
so anyway, bring your movies!! we'll work something out.
in addition, we could do what andrew said and have a room where
someone could push play.
