Don’t miss Austin’s famous South by Southwest Conference and Festival – ten days featuring the latest in music, film and new media talent.Part showcase, part schmooze-a-thon, Salon.com says, “SXSW is a great place to catch movies, directors, and trends way out in the depths of the indie ocean, a long time before they reach the mainstream, if they ever do.”
However, don’t let its uber-cool fringe status discourage you from taking part; you don’t need a pair of black skinny jeans to fit into this laid back scene. Whether you’re an aspiring film-maker, a garage band drummer, or a social media maven, you’ll find something to get into during South by Southwest – on or off the clock. Hurry! Registration ends in January.
