NICHE TOURISM
Using Film Festivals as a Tourism Marketing Tool
Submitted on 2013/09/11 at 5:47 am
Good introduction to the relationship between film festivals and destination marketing. I’d love to hear more about this and in particular any news on what makes a festival succeed (or why they fail). Anyone got any leads/articles about this?

WIN!
The winning comment posted on the Tattler website during the month of October 2013 will receive a copy of Dereck and Beverly Joubert’s ‘Eye of the Leopard’ DVD with the compliments of Livingstones Supply Co – Suppliers of the Finest Products to the Hospitality Industry.
This 55 minute film follows the remarkable life of one small leopard from when she is just 8 days old every step of the way until she is 3 years old and on the brink of adulthood. Legadema, as she is named, works her way into your heart as she slips in and out of danger virtually every day, running from baboons and hyenas but also making landmark strides in hunting and surviving. It is the story of a mother and daughter relationship as well as that of an emerging huntress in Botswana’s magnificent Mombo region of the Okavango Delta. • A Film by Derek and Beverly Joubert • Running Time: 55 minutes.
