Tribeca Festival Director and SVP of Programming Cara Cusumano joins No Film School's GG Hawkins to reflect on 25 years of Tribeca and explain what independent filmmakers should understand about today's festival landscape. Cusumano discusses Tribeca's evolution from its post-9/11 roots into a multidisciplinary storytelling festival, how programmers evaluate nearly 14,000 submissions, why filmmakers should build relationships with their peers instead of chasing gatekeepers, and how festivals are responding to shifts in film distribution and audience behavior. She also shares how emerging filmmakers can participate in festival communities even without a film in the lineup and why creating distinctive work matters more than waiting for the perfect opportunity. In this episode, No Film School's GG Hawkins and guest Cara Cusumano discuss... How Tribeca's founding mission of community, connection, and celebrating movies has endured across 25 years Cara's path from attending the first Tribeca Festival as a film student to becoming Festival Director and SVP of Programming Why networking is really about building relationships with your contemporaries and growing together throughout your careers How programmers view filmmakers and why they are actively looking for work to champion rather than trying to keep filmmakers out What makes a project feel distinctly right for Tribeca, from independent storytelling to memorable audience experiences How Tribeca manages and evaluates nearly 14,000 film and project submissions Why passionate advocacy inside the programming room can matter even when programmers disagree about a film Why festival feedback is complicated and how programming decisions can depend on the composition of the entire lineup, not simply the quality of an individual film How Tribeca expanded beyond features and shorts into television, podcasts, games, VR, immersive work, and creator-driven storytelling The value of human curation as an alternative to algorithmic discovery Why Tribeca is interested in projects that blur the boundaries between film, games, immersive media, podcasts, and other formats How the role of film festivals is changing as selling an independent film directly out of a festival becomes more difficult Why festivals increasingly function as places for talent discovery, career building, networking, and demonstrating audience demand How the in-person festival experience can create moments that cannot be replicated through individual at-home viewing How emerging filmmakers can participate in Tribeca through programs like the Storytelling Summit even if their work is not selected Why Cara hopes Tribeca remains flexible enough to respond to new forms of storytelling that do not yet have an established industry category Her advice to stop waiting for the perfect moment, keep collaborating, and make work because of the story rather than its potential festival or distribution outcome Memorable Quotes: “It's building a relationship with your contemporaries, and then you all grow. Like anyone who I know who has a position of power is only 'cause we were in the trenches as assistants 20 years ago.” “Programmers want to discover films. They live in fear of missing something amazing. They want to build those relationships.” “The industry player's coming less to buy completed projects than they are to scout future talent.” “There's never a perfect moment and, and it- the more that you can be creating and collaborating, and don't think about, like, what festival is this going to get into or what's the distribution going to be?” Guest: Cara Cusumano on IMDb Find No Film School everywhere: On the Web: No Film School Facebook: No Film School on Facebook Twitter: No Film School on Twitter YouTube: No Film School on YouTube Instagram: No Film School on Instagram
