It's really strange for me to think that 15 years ago there was no such thing as Cucaloru. It's really strange to think that there was a time when this amazing event did not exist- that there wasn't a few days a year where film-lover, and filmmakers alike came together and celebrated mother fucking film.
This year at Cucalorus I don't know if I will actually be able to see anything. Honestly. I'm going to do my best to see Dance-a-lorus. I've been at Cucalorus for 4 years and never seen Dance-a-lorus. We've got two showings of it this year so my changes are pretty good.
Last year's festival I made the mistake of not scheduling time to train our volunteers on our ticketing system so I was pretty much chained to our Information booth last year. I am going to be a lot more mobile this year ...
This year I'll be overseeing our trained box office volunteers (some of which I still need to train), making sure our off-site venues run smoothly, making sure our ushers know what to do, making sure our pass office volunteers show up and know how to distribute passes. I'll be collecting and entering box office reports (the forms for which i still have to make, hello to-do list) for every event we have. I'll be overseeing the Rush Lines and making available to the Rush Lines the right number of tickets, making sure that filmmakers have their tickets and reserved seats.
I hate Cucalorus.
I love Cucalorus.
