Members of Film Fatales and FWD-Doc are invited to a private networking mixer for filmmakers of all genders.

Eager to meet creative collaborators? Excited to share details about your latest passion project? Missing the company of like-minded artists? We will begin with a group “getting to know you” exercise facilitated by Leah Meyerhoff (Film Fatales), Jim LeBrecht (FWD-Doc) and Day Al-Mohamed, (FWD-Doc) before dividing up into smaller discussion circles for meaningful conversations based on a series of guided prompts.

FWD-Doc seeks to increase the visibility of, support for, and direct access to opportunities, networks, and employment for D/deaf and disabled filmmakers. We aim to foster greater inclusion of D/deafness and disability within the broader entertainment industry.

Film Fatales is a non profit arts organization which advocates for parity in the film industry and supports an inclusive community of over a thousand feature film and television directors of all marginalized genders. We raise the visibility of marginalized directors and expand the talent pool for decision makers looking to work with underrepresented voices.

We invite all participants to fill out this SKILL SHARE FORM in advance to build deeper connections. Responses will be shared during the mixer. This session will not be recorded to create a safe space for participation. This private event is for Film Fatales members and TWL alumni only.

This private mixer for Film Fatales and FWD-Doc members will be a fully interactive session and capacity is limited. The registration link will be shared the day of the event and the session will not be recorded.

This event will be accessible with ASL interpreting and live CART captioning. Please contact us to request an additional accommodation. See you soon!
