SVTAGS - CInequest Film FestivalSilicon Valley Technology, Art, Green & Sustainability talk show with host and Executive Producer Heather Durham. Episode guest is Halfdan Hussey, Director and Co-Founder of the Cinequest Film Festival. A global company set in the Silicon Valley, Cinequest’s uniqueness and impact results from being ahead of the curve, whether it comes to discovering or producing original voices, showcasing new technology, or reinventing the very definition of film distribution and marketing. We talked about the movie industry: how it has changed the convergence of animation and the digital explosion of film; the new technology in 3D animation and how much easier it has become since the festival started 20 years ago. We also talked about the most famous people that have been to the film festival in San Jose and who might be his favorite guests there, as well as, the Mavericks of the film industry that have shown up to received awards such as Deepak Chopra. Mr. Chopra was at this 2010 Cinequest receiving the Life Time Maverick award and SVTAGS was there to grab an interview with him. We aired this interview for the first time on this episode and it’s also posted on YouTube.
