This is an excellent suggestion as I have become a big fan of this show and will attend if I have to pay for it myself. I've garnered info on many new vendors who have all kinds of plans. If you are just asking about recent popular films, the approval plans through B&T etc are probably the way to go. I have not the budget for that so we select everything regardless of where it comes from.

Rudy, You should consider attending National Media Market in October. www.nmm.net There are many company's representing their independent/educational films. It's a great way to find many of these more "obscure" films in one place. Plus you can talk to your other colleagues in person about what they have seen that they like.
