FATF In Pittsburgh (AMIA Conference 2016)

Hello film-world!

It has been a moment since our last post, and for those of you who don’t know who we are and what we do…

The Film Advocacy Task Force

  • Promotes information on and access to motion picture film as a production, exhibition, and preservation format
  • Acts as a clearinghouse for all things related to film advocacy
  • Creates and facilitates education programs for K-12, college, public, and film enthusiasts
  • Maintains direct lines of communication among film archives, exhibitors, laboratories, educators, and filmmakers

…and lastly, we are an online resource! Consider filmadvocacy.org officially back in action for the 2016 AMIA Conference in Pittsburgh.
