Saturday was the biggest day by far of the entire festival. This was the day that the big names were scheduled to be on panels discussing their craft, and that the who’s who of the festival would be in attendance. As it turns out, MOST of the big names made it to their panels.

After our interview, Jay Chandrasekhar and Paul Soter had just enough time to have lunch at 8.0 and to beat feet down to UTA for their panel, “Directing My First Feature.” Jay was the moderator, and Paul Soter, Jason Sinclair Long, D/FW filmmaker Blake Calhoun, and Fred Durst were scheduled to attend. Fred Durst didn’t make it, and no one is really sure where he was.
