IMPORTANT: Professional Protocol

As always, if you wish to contact a speaker should request to have your email forwarded through one of the ScreenPlayLab founders. 

Don't pester our speaker! Do not ask speakers how to contact them. If a speaker asks you to contact him, please don't ask for contact info at the event. It's awkward for a speaker to give contact info to one person and not others present. We will help you reach the speaker if he or she wants to be reached.

Contacting a VIP uninvited is counter-productive and can get you banned.

We will forward thank you emails after the event, but it's entirely up to the speaker if he wants to respond personally. Many speakers are simply too busy, although they all appreciate the notes.
