"...an
evening party or social gathering, especially
held for a particular purpose."
Our
only purpose:
to
offer film folk a nice relaxing atmosphere to
come out, meet each other, and have some
fun.
Writer
Rosana Ferrez and actor André
Rivera
Here
is what Director of Photography,
Denise
Bailie had to say about the very
first
CineWomen
NY Soiree
(and
we didn't even have to bribe her):
The
Cinewomen gathering...was in six years of being
in New York the best film party I've been to.
The food and beer was great, plentiful and
accessible. The best thing was the mix of
interesting men and women. I was only going to
drop in as I had already had a long day, I left
at 1am. The conversation was hard to walk away
from. I also received paying work from someone I
met that night which is the whole point of
networking. I met a dp from Thailand, her very
interesting husband, a dp from L.A. who knew
several friends of mine, a professor and a
documentary director who was showing a film in
the Hampton's film festival and I never left
that corner of the room. I can only imagine who
I might have met if I had moved
around.
