Daily Duties at Outfest:
I was responsible all aspects of Outfest, The Los Angeles Gay & Lesbian Film Festival: Development, Marketing, Programming, Operations, and Adminstration. Under my leadership we implemented extensive cuts in the 2009 fiscal year budget of over $200,000 to try to stabilize cash flow during a time of significant financial turmoil. The Outfest 2008 budget was $2.0 million and the 2009 budget was projected at $1.7 million. I managed the 25 member Board of Directors and 9 full-time staff. We implemented new development strategies focused on corporate sponsorships and enhanced individual giving strategies but continued economic distress in the non-profit and entertainment sectors dictated further cuts in 2009 beyond what was originally projected during the 2008 budget discussions.
What they like about Outfest:
You give high priority to hiring firms with prestige. Market reputation and prestige of a firm may be determined through on-line research, and conversations with individuals working in your target industry. Note that firms "in the public eye" receive a great deal more critical publicity and attention than those operating with more anonymity. So as you assess your employment opportunities, be sure to seek out the positive aspects of the firm's reputation in addition to noting negative publicity the company may have received.
