  • Shoot & Splice: Filmmaker Speed Meetings

    Crosstown Arts East Atrium 1350 Concourse Avenue, Memphis, TN, United States

    Join Indie Memphis & Crosstown Arts for a very special and unique event: Filmmaker Speed Meetings! Think of it like Speed Dating but for filmmaking guidance and mentorship. This is a great opportunity for new/rising/new-to-Memphis filmmakers to connect with some industry professionals who are looking to hear what you are working on. 

    These meetings are intended for filmmakers with little experience and/or are new to Memphis and have not had many networking opportunities.  Advance sign-up is required (click on this event to access the sign-up form). Not all that apply may be selected to participate. Selection will depend on volume and how best the applicants can be matched with the attending professionals.

    If you are not selected and just want to attend Shoot & Splice as usual, fear not! Indie Memphis' own Senior Programmer Brighid Wheeler will be on-hand to discuss what she looks for when programming short films for our festival. Also, Memphis-based Production Coordinator Kevin Ivey will share insights into working in production offices as well as his recent Workforce Production Training workshops that he hosted in collaboration with the Memphis & Shelby County Film & TV Commission.
