Filmmaker Meetup on Friday, August 29

Meet animation professionals Orlando Velasquez and Monica Mitchell! This Q&A session is meant to be an open environment where you can hear from folks in media and see how they started, what they would do differently, and what they would like to pass on to other creative individuals now. Come be a part of our Q&A Session as talk about their experience and ask them for advice at our guest speaker panel!
