But… what is the FilmShop?!
The FilmShop is a group of independent filmmakers and media producers dedicated to developing new, groundbreaking work through collaboration and collective development. FilmShop members are a diverse bunch – from experimental documentary producers to animators to music video directors. Members have produced work for Al Jazeera, the Wall Street Journal, History Channel, Aol., Travel Channel, New York Times, and have been featured in prominent film festivals around the world.
Together we workshop new productions, incubate collaborative project, share gigs, present distribution opportunities and build partnerships with local and international organizations.
What type of members do we look for?
We are seeking skilled content producers and creative storytellers who are actively working on projects. Potential members are expected to be active contributors, give honest critical feedback and thrive in collaborative spaces. We are not limited to independent fiction filmmakers, but welcome anyone in the visual media field. Narrative filmmakers, documentary filmmakers, video journalists, animators, experimental film producers, film public relations professionals, motion graphics, and others are all welcome to apply. Potential members should be looking to grow and expand their work and talents, as well as those who surround them. Potential members are selected by the following criteria – quality of previous work, willingness to collaborate and contribute, attendance, and must have an active project to workshop.
