The Tribeca Film Festival runs from April 20th to May 1st and Tribeca Grand is calling all aspiring auteurs with their ‘Director’s Cut Package’. This innovative hotel package marries Apple’s stylish line of digital lifestyle products to the Tribeca Grand’s luxury boutique hotel experience.

The adventure begins upon arrival when guests are given a Flip Ultra HD Digital Video Camcorder and can take to the streets to film in the city that has been the backdrop for countless cultural masterpieces and a favorite haunt for legendary film icons like Woody Allen, Scorsese, De Niro, and Coppola.

Guestroom accommodations are in the Tribeca Grand Hotel´s iStudios. Each outfitted with digital pioneer Apple´s latest multimedia technology; a fully-loaded iMac with film, photo, and sound editing software capabilities including the latest version of Final Cut Pro to add special effects, cut unwanted scenes, and lay a soundtrack, post production. Guest of the package can have access to Apple´s iPad, and each room also features an Apple wireless keyboard and mouse, and for music lovers, an iPod and Sound Dock.

The Director´s Cut hotel package offers guests a compelling, next-wave mix of function and fun. With this package, the Tribeca Grand Hotel adds the latest in technology to the list of amenities it offers guests. Continuing the New York hotel´s pioneering force and emphasis on offering visitors a true slice of the TriBeCa lifestyle all the while extending the neighbourhood´s leadership in the film industry.

Located just two blocks south of its renowned sister, the Soho Grand Hotel, the Tribeca Grand sits on the boarder of two of the most affluent neighbourhoods in Manhattan, SoHo and TriBeCa; where cobblestone streets and historic cast iron buildings give way to the most exclusive boutiques, restaurants, and galleries.

From its inception, the Tribeca Grand has had firm roots in film: the design inspiration and downtown location, paired with the private screening room located on the lower lobby level. With roomy plush leather seating, state-of-the-art projection, and digital surround sound, it continuously attracts the film industry´s finest and swiftly secured it as a reputable venue that offers all the luxuries expected. Guests can attend the Sunday Night Film Screenings, curated by the Hotel´s lifestyle arm, GrandLifeNYC.
