The Cannes Starter Guide - second edition: Makes Cannes work for you from your first visit Kindle Edition

Cannes can be a make-or-break for your movie, property or content business. If it's your first-time, there are numerous traps to avoid and tricks that can save you time and money. I wish I had known half of this when I first attended Cannes (for Midem) over 20 years ago.

The biggest trade fair in Cannes is the Marché du Film/Film Market. This guide will take you from a seat in front of your computer (or Kindle reader) to your first booked meetings in the sunshine of Cannes. There are also tips for saving money on transport and a brief overview of where to stay.

This is not a tourist guide. There are no restaurant reviews as Tripadvisor does that better! The guide will help you find possible business partners, guide you through your first pitches and manage the follow-up. It works if you are attending alone or if you are part of a group (I've done both). It's relevant for the Cannes Film Festival, MIPCOM and MIPTV, Midem and MIPIM.

All the info has been updated, and a new section talks about using online events to make new contacts.

Hopefully, it will help you find the town as exciting and productive as I do now - and not take 18 years to get up to speed!

Bon voyage!
