Set up a local Film Screening of one of the Zeitgeist films.

Set up a Zeitgeist Film Screening!  The Zeitgeist films are one of the most effective ways of getting TZM's values and understandings across to people. How many of us are here because they saw one of the Zeitgeist films?

1.)  Finding a Venue:

Colleges
Community Centers
Local Events/festivals
Documentary Film Screening Clubs
http://www.kpfk.org/FilmClub
http://TopangaPeaceAlliance.org/First-Friday-Film-Night

2.)  Email the Venue Contact Person (example text):

"Hi my name is Brandon, I have a film screening question.

I work with an organization called "The Zeitgeist Movement". I see you have monthly documentary screenings at your community space there and I wanted to see about setting up a screening with you guys of our latest film "Zeitgeist: Moving Forward" (Watch film for free here). We have a Q&A panel available to answer questions after the film. The film does a fascinating critique on our socioeconomic model, exposing the roots of some of our major social problems in the world today, while also expressing the logical, rational, practical solutions we have at our disposal to update (and evolve) our current social system, enabling a truly sustainable, global society to emerge for the betterment of all the world's people. Looking forward to hearing back!

Thanks,
Brandon"

3.)  Set a Time/Date:

Plan the screening at least a few weeks ahead of time to allow for enough time to promote the film screening. 

4.)  Get the Word Out:

  • Use images and messages through social media
  • Put Townhall Flyer Cards in cafes, shops, and info boards.
  • Organize local activism near the Film Screening location to promote the upcoming film to the local community (ex: if the film screening is going to be in Venice, then organize activism locally in Venice to promote it.)
  • Email the details to zmcapowerline@gmail.com to have the film screening posted on the Calendar.

5.)  Finalize:

Arrange speakers for the Q&A panel
Prepare free materials to hand out at the screening (ex: Info cards and Dvds)

    Documentary Film Screenings are one the more popular ways local communities are connecting and sharing information these days.
