FILM POP AND NH FILM FESTIVAL, PORTSMOUTH, NH – Film POP! is pleased to announce that it will be working with the Festival this year as a Media Partner, and will lead and execute the online promotional efforts and strategy of the 10th Annual New Hampshire Film Festival in 2010.

“We are very fortunate to have Leslie and Amy of Film POP! onboard for NHFF 2010,” said NHFF Executive Director Nicole Gregg. “Film POP!’s expertise, experience and creativity in new media will help the New Hampshire Film Festival continue to bring greater exposure to high-quality independent film.”

This year marks the Tenth Anniversary of the New Hampshire Film Festival. Portsmouth’s film community members have been dubbed the future “Sundance East” by local news outlet Experience Magazine. This highlights the caliber of films and attending filmmakers each year, as well as the thriving local film community. Past Jury members include Ann Cusack, and Board members include renowned filmmaker, writer and director Chase Bailey and producer Mark Constance. The festival has been attended by actors such as Cusack and Brett Cullen and has also been home to such phenomenal films as Shooting Beauty, Food, Inc., The Sensation of Sight, and Burning Plain.

Film POP! has many exciting things planned for the New Hampshire Film Festival this year, including geolocation tie-ins, local business promotion, transmedia cross over, and Google Earth integration. Film POP! has several other tricks up their sleeves to surprise attendees of the festival as well. From events, films, meet and greet opportunities, festival tie ins, product placement and so much more, the Tenth Anniversary of the New Hampshire Film Festival will be celebrated in style, on and off line.
