I'll be heading to Cannes for the first 4 days of the festival. Unfortunately, I don't have a film in competition, but I am going as part of my job - tough life, I know. Just curious if there are any veterans here from Cannes that can offer up a few words of wisdom.

If you're shooting on video, one trick of the trade is to fake a birthday party and have all the relevant crew on hand to film while at the dinner table. Easy way of bringing in cameras and small, hand-held equipment. Of course, if you are shooting film, no chance - be nice and ask.
