Join us for a fireside chat with Director/Writer/Producer/Actress Marta Mendez Cross as she talks about her journey from Panama to UT-Austin to Hollywood and the successes and struggles that have defined her career and pushed it further. Whether on network television (NCIS: Los Angeles, Criminal Minds, Castle) or cinema screens (Las Tres Sisters, The Bounce Back), Marta will share what it's like to act, write, and direct as a Latina in Hollywood. Exclusive: Marta will also share her new film Ichild, an award-winning short she wrote and directed that she is currently expanding into a feature film.
Filmmaking is hard! The toll it can take on you mentally can be harder. How do you find a way to stay grounded while you prep a project, film a project, finish a project, or all of the above?
The quest for funds is constant. Join us for a workshop on what decks have actually worked and the feedback panelists have given and received on their most successful pitches, including looks at fundraising avenues, tax incentives, investors, and more.
