The Sundance Institute is connecting with film production teams Columbus and Unrest to help them strive in the digital production era. Many filmmakers continue to work on balancing a budget for a film project that people will want to invest their time on, as well as a mode of distribution that will be the most effective. Along with financial boundaries, filmmakers also take on a set of moral responsibilities behind their works of art. That is one main reason that Sundance is working with these films to help them find a level of independence away from major studios. This

The 2017 Sundance Film Festival is currently underway in the mountains of Utah. During the first day of the event, the festival organizers experienced major issues with the ticketing system.

The Sundance Film Festival has recently announced four additional films set to screen for the 2017 event in Utah from January 19-29. Sundance announced the following films to debut: Bending the Arc and Long Strange Trip. Two from the vault include: Desert Hearts and Reservoir Dogs.

With the amount of anti-gun films set to debut this year, it is my personal view that screening that violent film is in bad taste. When filmmakers are pushing to remove guns from entertainment, it is really just a
