Welcome to this issue of The Wild Lines electronic newsletter.  The purpose of this newsletter is to help educate and inspire people in the independent film industry.  It is written by Mandy Wildman, with contributions by Wayne Porter and Laura Sherman.  Please feel free to forward it to your friends.  Thanks. 

1. COOL NEWS!  All The World got into the Tambay Film & Video Festival!  The festival takes place in late April and this year the screenings will be at the Channelside Theaters in Tampa (where the Sanderson County premiere was held.) 
    

2. Article: Low-Budget Screenwriting by Mandy Wildman - useful tips and advice about how to write a low-budget masterpiece!
    

3. Latest news from Sanderson County, by Wayne Porter.  "After the  premiere in September I made a few changes and edits to the film, then started plugging away, sending the movie out to film festivals all around the country, as well as several here in Florida.  I am utilizing every possible connection I can to get the film 'out there'.  I sent copies out to several influential people in Hollywood that some nice folks that came to the premiere know.  Lots of people who were at the premiere have written me letters and e-mailed me saying how much they liked the movie, which I really appreciate.  My wife has been bugging me to write a sequel starring our son, Talbryn, and I'm sort of thinking about it. To e-mail me with any thoughts or suggestions, click here."
    

4. All The World: After the premiere, Mandy and Laura studied the surveys, and then made some minor changes and fixes and added a short, fun scene at the beginning.  Once that was all done, we made some copies and shortly before Christmas Laura flew to LA to start talking to distributors (actually - she just called me on her way to a meeting with a distributor who saw the trailer and is interested in the movie - keep your fingers crossed! - Mandy).  Laura will write and tell you fellow film makers all about her adventures in the next newsletter.
    

5. Cedar Bennett Documentary - We recently shot a rockabilly dance event organized in honor of Cedar.  Read more here.
