This group is being started to cull talent for modeling, acting, editing, sound, props, writing and everything in between. Unlike most meet-ups we are not just going to sit around and talk about it...or go watch a movie or show...we are going to be about it. We will be making short and feature film, print work such as publicity catalog and calender shoots. All forms of talent are desired, but you must be as serious as we are, slackers and no-shows will be booted. We will never ask you to pay f …

I like to watch documentary films. I am sure there are others who are like me in this regard! Therefore, this group is for people who love to see documentary films and discuss/share ideas. I don't know about you but the reason I like documentaries because they help me to connect the dots of my understanding. They help me to see, hear and read at the same time. Reading, traveling, writing etc. can serve similar purpose but watching well-made documentaries can be highly effective plus comparativel …

Films will be written and directed by its members, and we’ll decide collectively which will be the next project. Any collective, and certainly this one, will require frequent compromise, …

The goal of this meetup group is to become better filmmakers and actors. You can only learn so much about filmmaking from reading books (which is helpful in its own right), or going to film school (very expensive/time intensive)... but the best way is improve as a filmmaker and actor is to get involved in the whole process numerous times (Director Robert Rodriguez made thirty shorts before making his first full length feature, El Mariachi ). It is our hope that by repeatedly making good little f …
