1.4 joins The Location Beach Lounge at Cannes Lions 2017

The Location Guide is proud to announce that 1.4, the online magazine for cutting edge filmmakers, will be a new partner at this year’s Beach Lounge at the Cannes Lions Festival of Creativity.

1.4 provides editorial coverage of the very best of emerging talent throughout the film, television and commercials industries. The organisation will also be unveiling its very own award ceremony later this year.

The company was founded by Lyndy Stout, who worked for over a decade as an Editor for Shots magazine, and also acted as the Deputy Editor for Creative Review.

Lyndy explains: “being part of TLG’s Beach Lounge at Rado Plage on June 22^nd and 23^rd is a wonderful opportunity for 1.4 to have meetings with newcomers and old friends in one relaxed place, right by the sea.”

She continues: “we’re always scouring the world for the best and boldest filmmaking talent to showcase on 1.4’s online magazine and at the 1.4 Awards Show in London in September, so we’d love to have conversations about any short-form work made over the last 18 months and also about filmmakers who haven’t arrived on our radar yet. I’m really looking forward to it.”

From June 19th, The Location Beach Lounge will take over the Rado Plage on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday and Friday, 10am to 5pm.

Clara Le, The Location Guide’s Commercial Director, adds: “here at TLG, we love to see emerging filmmakers receiving the attention they deserve, and so it is with great pleasure that we announce our partnership with 1.4 to bring new business opportunities to this year’s Beach Lounge.”

In addition to 1.4, the current list of confirmed partners includes the Advertising Producers Association, LIMELITE, Family Film, Dreamaker Productions, Made in Lisbon, Film Produkcja and Mother & Dragons.

The Location Beach Lounge offers a stylish yet affordable place for all attendees of Cannes Lions to host and enjoy their meetings. For more information, please contact clara.le@thelocationguide.com.
