We’ve had some really nice interest in the project. It sounds nice now, but that might change later on when they say, “You know what? It’s not for us.” I like to keep expectations low. That way you don’t get your hopes up. And that way they can’t come crashing down.

A few things I’ve learned over the years from going into “pitch” meetings.

For a happy fifth year, Rooftop is excited to once again partner with IFP to bring exciting outdoor events to Independent Film Week.

If you’re looking for great eclectic films by local filmmakers, look no further than The Filmwax Film Series, a Brooklyn-based film series founded and programmed by our friend Adam Schartoff. We have to say, we like his taste, especially considering all the Rooftop Alums he’s got going on.

In the debut episode of Filmwax Radio, host Adam Schartoff talks to filmmaker Zachary Levy.
