Talkback on Socially Conscious Shorts
Cinereach and Arts Engine teamed up to host a film screening and talkback at the Grassroots Media Conference this past Saturday, which was held at NYC’s Hunter College. Former Reach Film Fellow Annie P. Waldman, cinematographer Dan Carbone, as well as Media That Matters filmmaker Ben Herson, sat on a panel emceed by Reva Goldberg to discuss audience building and funding for short films.
Cinereach and Arts Engine also shared a table at the conference, to distribute information on opportunities for socially conscious filmmakers. The conference drew a crowd of organizations and individuals interested in media for social change. For more information on the Grassroots Media Coalition and Conference click here.
