With so many stories to tell – and so many storytellers – how do you stand out and access the resources needed to bring your film to life? Film Independent’s Artist Development programs are designed to help elevate your project and move your career forward.
Join us for a virtual session with Film Independent’s Artist Development staff as they discuss our Documentary Story Lab and Episodic Lab.
Learn about the types of projects we typically support, what makes an application stand out, and how these programs can help you take the next step in your creative journey. The session will also include practical dos and don’ts for applying.
Speakers include Dea Vazquez (Associate Director, Fiction Programs), Ashley Flores (Manager, Fiction Programs) and Daniel Cardone (Senior Manager, Nonfiction Programs).
