The global footage licensing meet up –FootageFest– will be back in LA in September …’with a vengeance’.
Organiser Dom Dare told PAN: ‘This fall, we’ll be back on the warm and sunny beaches of Marina Del Rey for three days of screenings, panels, discussions, exhibitors and parties. Join us September 25– 27, 2025!’
‘FootageFest ’25 kicks off with a screening of the cult-classic Napoleon Dynamite, followed by a Q&A with some of the cast, including Napoleon himself, Jon Heder! Learn how this class comedy started out as a BYU student film, and how these young filmmakers wound up creating one of the most popular comedies of all time!
You can expect a full two days jam-packed with amazing panels, including topics like music clearance covered by Evan Greenspan and Jimmy Kimmel Live! keyboardist Jeff Babco, a case study of the O.J. Simpson murder trial coverage, a trip back to the 1960s into the magical world of Scopitones, the return of perennial favorites Historical Show & Tell and It’s All About the Content, and much more.’
