    Katy Sevigny on the Media That Matters Film Festival.

    Last week, I spoke with Katy Sevigny, founder of Arts Engine, about the Media Matters Film Festival, which began its seventh year a few weeks ago. The full interview is at Stream, and it’s a must-read that really fits our intentions with the site (a sort of NewTeeVee for indie filmmakers, if you will).


    Sevigny directed the fascinating documentary Election Day, which premiered at SXSW in 2007. It airs Tuesday, July 1 at 10 PM on Thirteen/WNET New York and 9 PM on KCET. During the second half our interview, Sevigny shared some general thoughts about the current state of documentary filmmaking from her unique vantage point. Stay tuned for that part of our conversation—in Stream again—later this month.
