GreenCine Represented at SXSW Panels

GreenCine's David Hudson and Jonathan Marlow will both be speaking at Austin's SXSW next week. Or to put it more accurately, they'll both be moderating panel discussions. All panels are at the Austin Convention Center. Here are the details:

Lonelygirl15: A Case Study
Sunday, March 11th
Room 12AB
11:30 am - 12:30 pm
For months, thousands of people around the world were captivated by the daily video diary from an unknown teen-age girl. There was drama, romance, and comedy. But, in the early Fall of 2006, it was revealed that these video diaries were all a fabrication from the imagination of three artists. From obscurity to popularity on YouTube, the people behind LonelyGirl15 talk publicly for the first time, about their experiences with online filmmaking and the swirling questions of what's real and what's staged.

The Future of DVDs
Monday, March 12th
Room 12AB
10:00 am - 11:00 am
With direct-to-DVD releases and unrated copies of the latest Hollywood blockbusters, DVDs are a stable presence and an ever-growing means for studios to get their films to the public. Extra footage, commentary tracks and other bonus materials entice fans to spend their money on owning copies of their favorite movies. Where is it all headed for the big studios and the indie filmmaker? Plus, how is the DVD medium evolving to better suit the needs of both the industry and the audience?
