\n\tThe\u00a060th edition of the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival\u00a0(KVIFF) is gearing up to celebrate the venerable Czech fest\u2019s past and, at the same time, guide it into its future.<\/p>\n

\n\tOne design change symbolizing this connection between what has come before and what lies ahead is the redesign of an iconic KVIFF space. \u201cFor this and future editions, the Karlovy Vary festival is redesigning the area around the entrance to the Hotel Thermal\u2019s Grand Hall with a new architectural design that will allow audiences to more intensely experience and share in the festival atmosphere during the festival\u2019s opening and closing ceremonies, as well as at festival screenings,\u201d organizers explain. \u201cGuest arrivals\u00a0with live commentary will bring the festival action closer to visitors and add interesting behind-the-scenes observations.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tAt the heart of the update is an extension of the red carpet. <\/p>\n

\n\tPetr Lintimer, the member of the KVIFF leadership troika who serves as the fest\u2019s head of production, tells THR<\/em>: \u201cWe are going to have the largest and biggest red carpet [in our history], and it will be cooler. You can walk the red carpet like in Cannes or in Venice. It will be about three times bigger than it has been in the last 20 years.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe goal is simple: more carpet for more people \u2013 and more fun. \u201cRed carpet for everybody!\u201d Lintimer explains. That includes stars and celebrities, filmmakers, other creatives and guests, film fans and others in attendance. <\/p>\n

\n\tThe KVIFF team has been working on the reconfiguration for almost 10 months. \u201cWe have visualizations, and we [are now on] the 35th visualization of the place,\u201d the expert shares. \u201cWe have been thinking about it since the last festival. We wanted to make it bigger, make it better and make it different.\u201d <\/p>\n

\n\tSo, regular KVIFF attendees can look forward to extra oomph at Karlovy Vary during the festival. And Lintimer knows better than most people how much the spa town dresses up for the big annual extravaganza. \u201cOutside the film festival, the city looks totally different, and so do the Hotel Thermal and other key buildings,\u201d he tells THR<\/em>. \u201cWe help turn the city and its atmosphere into a big city. It\u2019s totally different from any other time of the year.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tThe production and infrastructure guru, who also deals with the likes of security, transportation, cinemas and other buildings, as well as sponsors, lauds the big team effort that goes into KVIFF every year. \u201cWe are really strongly connected and [aligned] \u2013 Kry\u0161tof, Karel and I,\u201d Lintimer says. \u201cWe all have our own focus, and we also have our shared, common focus.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tBeyond staff members, there are legions of volunteers who make the Karlovy Vary magic happen. \u201cI want to highlight all the people around us,\u201d he notes. \u201cFor most of them, it\u2019s a two-week job, and they have to take vacations from their regular jobs to work for us. They are lawyers, medical doctors, directors of hotel complexes and other things. It\u2019s not about money for them. It\u2019s about the feeling that you are part of this big thing in the Czech Republic \u2013 our festival.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tConcludes Lintimer: \u201cEvery year, around 1,500 people work for the festival \u2013 as hostesses and security guys, projectionists, drivers and transport coordinators. They really love the festival, and they love to be with us to share in the atmosphere of the festival.\u201d<\/p>\n
