Proposed Measurable Outcome(s)

Our goal is to get 280 audience members (the capacity of the theatre) to attend the MNKINO Film Score Fest. Also, we would like to screen 18 films for the event. In order to evaluate our project, we will do an audience count and a count of the films submitted. We will also solicit feedback from the audience and artists through email surveys after the event.

Measurable Outcome(s)

We had 270 people attend Film Score Fest 2017. 58 artists participated and produced 26 original films and scores to Film Score Fest. On a scale of 1 to 5, 1 being poor, 5 being excellent, 71% of audience members gave this event a rating of 5, and 29% gave it a rating of 4. No one gave it a rating under 4.
