Our colleagues at the Federation of European Screenwriters will be announcing the Screenwriters Manifesto. If you have not already added your name to the online petition I would urge you to do so now http://www.scenaristes.org/manifesto.htm. We all hope it will be a good opportunity to raise the profile of screenwriters in Cannes.<BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>Note for your diary – the big party at the Screenwriters Villa will be on the evening of Wednesday 23rd May. More details to follow. I hope you will be able to stop by the UK Film Council Pavilion for one of our daily meet-up at 6.00 pm to catch up and exchange news and so on.<BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>By the way, I hope you are all packing at least one formal dress in case you get a ticket to a premiere – that means a dinner jacket for the guys – they won’t let you up the red carpet unless you are dressed in style!<BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>Any first-timers to Cannes should take a bit of time to study the procedure on the official Festival website<BR/><BR/>http://www.festival-cannes.fr/en/festivalServices/festivalGuideFirstTime<BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>This explains all the ropes about getting your accreditation badge etc.<BR/><BR/> <BR/><BR/>If I can be of any help please don’t hesitate to give me a call or send me a text so that we can meet up.<BR/>anne@writersguild.org.ukAnne Hogbenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10497085524125971109noreply@blogger.com
