Kris Meyer - Emmy nominated and award winning producer who has worked for the past 19 years with the comedic duo The Farrelly Brothers under their production banner, Conundrum Entertainment - will be here to share his experiences in the film industry, comedy, production... A born storyteller, Kris will impart some entertaining tips and answer your questions. This is an opportunity to ask all those questions you thought you'd never have the chance to ask.
Tim Jackson - Film Studies Professor at New England Institute of Art, and Filmmaker - will discuss the genesis of a documentary and different ways of completing your idea. He will screen a recent short documentary and discuss its narrative arc. If there is time, he will talk about and give hints on directing actors for fiction film. Tim has such a wealth of experience in the creative realm so come prepared to ask questions and get answers.
