“We’re thrilled to partner with Deadline for the inaugural TV Sidebar at this year’s SCAD Savannah Film Festival,” said Christina Routhier, Executive Director of the SCAD Savannah Film Festival, which runs October 26-November 2. “This is a unique opportunity to shine a spotlight on some of the exciting new television content premiering this fall. Television plays a critical role in the SCAD curriculum, with many of our students and alumni building successful careers in the industry. We’re honored to celebrate and support their contributions to this ever-evolving medium.”
