Last night we hosted an open forum discussion for folks who participate in The Reel Roundtable's film, screenplay and/or networking events. The goal was to receive feedback regarding prior events and to open up the programming to the audience by brainstorming for next season's events. It was the first time we designated an entire evening to audience programming.

The turn-out was positively overwhelming and the evening exceeded all expectations. At first, it took a while for the group to warm up and think outside the box and outside the evenings that had already been programmed. All in all, the audience programming was a complete success.

Once the momentum had begun; the ideas started rolling, influencing more ideas, growing rapidly, and they were all intelligent, creative and fresh. The evening added even more excitement to an already engaging film series.
