Presented by Robinson Smith Wealth Advisors
There is no better way to start a busy day of the festival than with talented creatives on a fall morning in the Filmmakers Lounge at The Music Hall’s Members Club! Join a selection of this year’s filmmakers and special guests from the world of short filmmaking for an intimate and casual conversation.
This morning event offers attendees a highly interactive opportunity to get to know some of our featured artists and guests, hear the stories behind their work, ask questions, and share our love of the movies while inside The Music Hall’s space with an art deco/speakeasy feel.
Led by New Hampshire PBS’ Judi Currie with featured guests:
- Alfred Thomas Catalfo, prolific award-winning shorts filmmaker and multi-time NHFF alumni
- Poppy Gordon, co-writer/director/producer and co-star of 2026 NHFF live action short Intimité
- Gordon LePage, writer/director/producer and animator of 2026 NHFF animation shorts A Game of Chance and Something Greater than You
- Paul Moakley, director/producer of 2026 NHFF documentary short Respirateur
