Production Meeting 7-9pm for Make a Movie in a Month

Join us for a production meeting to launch a short film project to be completed in a month. All films produced are eligible to be included in the Signal Film Festival on 5/31/26 to benefit the Alzheimer's Association. The cost per team to participate is $15 (not per person but per team). This is an excellent opportunity to gain hands-on experience, build new connections, and collaborate on a creative project. Films can be any genre you choose (ie narrative, documentary, animation, experimental, etc).

If you have an idea for a 5-minute short film, please come prepared to pitch it. We will review production logistics and discuss potential group-sponsored projects, so be ready to contribute and collaborate.

The event is open to filmmakers, editors, directors, producers, actors, writers, hair/makeup artists, investors, students, etc. Don't forget your business cards. We look forward to seeing you there.
