EVENTS

December 2023

At the event, “Crossing Boundaries and Mixing Mediums,” hosted at Nice Shoes, our panel of industry experts talked about navigating the ever-changing landscape of the entertainment industry and spilled some special tips for our mentees about how to make the most of their network and skillset as they enter the industry. 

A final HUGE shout out to our sponsors: Nice Shoes, William Chris Vineyards and My First Job in Film. 

June 2022

The world has changed and so have we - more of us than ever are starting independent businesses and trying on multiple professional hats - DP/Directors, Writer/Producers, Editors/VFX/Animators, etc.! So, we gathered to answer questions about the benefits and challenges of working for oneself, why it’s important to have a versatile skillset, how to overcome the stigma of having more than one title, and how to stay relevant and hirable via word of mouth alone.

 

Our esteemed moderator Director/Producer/Writer, Rebecca Eskreis and brilliant panelists DP, Jendra Jarnigan, Director/Editor, Farah X, Director/Writer/Producer, Assal Ghawami, and Producer/Director, Katie Leary walked us through their journeys to success and reflected on what they’d wish they’d known earlier.
