These four-day workshops are open to creatives who identify as women who want to deepen their understanding of crafting content for the adventure film genre.
During this program, filmmakers will take part in scheduled workshops with faculty and guests to explore the elements of producing a film, discuss themes in the mountain and adventure filmmaking industry, receive feedback from faculty on works-in-progress, and share strategies and best practices with peers.
Participants will also benefit from on-campus lodging and meals to support a fully immersive experience, and shared production spaces and collaborative areas where participants can work together and share ideas, fostering a vibrant creative community.
