Liberation Lab: Tools & Tactics for Creative Liberation (Session 1)
Liberation Labs is an event designed as an immersive circuit of action stations, each hosted and staffed by one of our collaborating organizations. What does this mean? More than an industry roundtable or filmmaker speed dating, each organization has crafted a thoughtful 10-15 minute mini-lab or opportunity to meaningfully advance your project. Each station can receive 2 filmmakers at a time. This is open to filmmakers with projects in development, production, post or distribution. Below is an overview of the offerings and you can download the full labs offering here.
