Challenge yourself to be better…
Since the fall of 2023, indie filmmakers of varying levels and skills have come together to increase skills, strengthen connections and become better filmmakers and humans! So far, our teams have produced seven narrative short films using available talent, willing crew, in-kind donations and minimal resources. We’re doing it again! Our goal is not only to make great films but also to help each other improve skills and knowledge in a safe, hands-on learning opportunity. We gain useful info, insight and inspiration on each phase of the process, from screenwriting and story development, pre-production, production and post-production. We learn teams are ultimately at the mercy of their own tenacity, attention and ability to persevere without anyone losing an eye. We do more than survive – we thrive!
Will you rise to the challenge?
