Main Client Base
The annual Festival's main client base includes members of the GLBTI (Gay, Lesbian, Bisexual, Transgender and Intersex) communities, film industry people, sponsors, media, film buffs and the general public. Many of these patrons who are from outer suburban and regional areas, as well as interstate would not have the opportunity to see these films outside the Festival, as these films rarely receive commercial release.

Famous quotes containing the words main, client and/or base:
“But oh, not the hills of Habersham,
And oh, not the valleys of Hall
Avail: I am fain for to water the plain.
Downward, the voices of Duty call—
Downward, to toil and be mixed with the main,
The dry fields burn, and the mills are to turn,
And a myriad flowers mortally yearn,
And the lordly main from beyond the plain
Calls o’er the hills of Habersham,
Calls through the valleys of Hall.”
—Sidney Lanier (1842–1881)
“A client is to me a mere unit, a factor in a problem.”
—Sir Arthur Conan Doyle (1859–1930)
“One does not jump, and spring, and shout hurrah! at hearing one has got a fortune, one begins to consider responsibilities, and to ponder business; on a base of steady satisfaction rise certain grave cares, and we contain ourselves, and brood over our bliss with a solemn brow.”
—Charlotte Brontë (1816–1855)
