I'm Mike (an indie filmmaker for 33 years). Each year, my wife and I host a weekend of films, demonstrations and networking. There's food, drink and fun. There's no admission fee, though pizza money is appreciated. Many attendees are from out of state and occasionally out of country. Industry professionals who wish to share or teach are most welcome. The "doctor" gives a 2 minute overview, in this video: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Q_Q8XosPR6A You can find "vegasindiemeet" on facebook or contact me for directions.
