A Pivotal Day for the Future of Film

Access to Expertise & Relationships

Today, November 7, 2024, PRIVV had the honnor of attending a groundbreaking event hosted by the Black Screen Office (BSO). This gathering brought together industry leaders, filmmakers, and creatives to discuss the critical issue of financial literacy and industry knowledge within the film industry, particularly for BIPOC filmmakers.

A Call to action: Bridging the Knowledge Gap

One of the key takeaways from the event was the urgent need to address the “knowledge gap” that many aspiring Movie Directors face. While talent and passion are essential, understanding the intricacies of the industry is equally crucial. PRIVV, in collaboration with UniLearnal and the Innovative Hub, is committed to bridging this gap by providing:

Educational Programs:
Workshops and seminars on industry standards, funding opportunities, and business practices.

Mentorship:
One-on-one guidance from experienced filmmakers to help navigate the industry.

Networking Opportunities:
Platforms to connect with industry professionals and potential collaborators.

Access to Resources:
Tools and resources to help filmmakers develop their projects and secure funding.

A Brighter Future for Film

By empowering filmmakers with the knowledge and skills they need to succeed, we can create a more inclusive and diverse film industry. PRIVV is proud to be part of this movement and looks forward to working with the BSO and other industry partners to shape the future of film.

Thank you to the BSO for organizing this important event and for their continued efforts to support BIPOC filmmakers.
