MENTORSHIP IN FILMMAKING | JULY 27, 2013 | 2:00-4:00 PM 

ROCKPORT OPERA HOUSE

In creative fields there is a history of master-apprentice relationships that can arise in both formal and informal ways. For today's filmmakers, having another professional that can both challenge and assist with questions of craft, make introductions, and serve as a guide through difficult projects is as important as ever. Steven Fierberg, ASC and others will lead a conversation about mentorship in filmmaking.
