A hands-on weekend intensive exploring experimental filmmaking through image-making, writing, and intuitive expression. Participants are invited to bring ideas, prose or poetry, images, and video clips to rework and build on. Over the weekend, you’ll create a short film using your phone or camera, learn basic editing and sound techniques, and experiment with cinematic form – ending with a community screening.

You’re welcome to register solo or with collaborators; teams are encouraged to use the workshop as a guided container to develop and complete a piece with accountability and support.
