The biggest event inside Macstock Conference and Expo is the annual Macstock Film Festival, organized and hosted by Wally Cherwinski.

No prizes, no judging and no pressure mean that anyone can be part of the Festival. Wally provides some tips on how to approach a subject, creating something from content you already have, and the emotional impact of preserving memories through video.
