Script DC

Women in Film & Video DC ⟩ Script DC

ScriptDC is the premier conference for filmmakers based in the Mid-Atlantic including writers, directors, producers, editors, and talent to connect with accomplished teachers, consultants, and industry leaders.

We are so eager to bring filmmaking resources to this community that we aren’t waiting for the return to “normal.” And really, how good was “normal” for you anyway? ScriptDC has always been about bringing information, resources, and connections that you can use to tell your stories. So, we’re deconstructing the weekend event into a series of 20+ workshops that will be presented from September 2022 through March 2023. Each month we will feature subject-matter experts and independent filmmakers who are interested in nurturing your talent. The most up-to-date information will be in the WIFV calendar. These are online events. You will be sent the login link with your registration confirmation email. Webinars are $15 for WIFV Members / $30 for Public
