This event will be held in person.

Where: KRC - 1 E. Erie, Suite 660

Coming this fall will be a series of seminars to put you in the best possible position to create your own content.  Starting on October 28th we will have a Conservatory - "From Actor to Producer: Making your own Content and Developing Another Industry Skill Set" featuring SAG-AFTRA members who went from being actors to filmmakers.

That will be followed in November by a 3-week series on writing a short film script. This series will be mandatory for those interested in participating in the Short Film Series starting in January, 2025.  If you are interested in just the writing seminars -you can do that without any obligation to participate in the Short Film Series.
