More than just a film festival, The Sundance Institute offers a myriad of resources for emerging and independent filmmakers, but navigating them all can be overwhelming. So this very special podcast episode is designed to answer this essential question, from Carlos: “What advice can [you offer] for someone who’s just starting to make their own work — whether it’s shorts, documentaries, pilot scripts — and are trying to create from a truthful place, [while] also trying to find their voice, and wanting to be noticed by people like yourselves, knowing that many times resources and time is limited for someone who’s just starting?” —Carlos López Estrada, Director, "Blindspotting,” “Raya and the Last Dragon,” “Summertime” Today’s panel includes: Ilyse McKimmie - Deputy Director of the Feature Film Program at Sundance Institute Paola Mottura - Film Fund Director at Sundance Institute Jandiz Estrada Cardoso - Director of the Sundance Institute Episodic Program Ana Souza - Manager of the Programming Department and Programmer at Sundance Institute Adam Piron - Director of Sundance Institute's Indigenous Program Once again, this discussion was streamed live as part of Antigravity Academy’s Satellite Sessions — “monthly conversations with incredibly exciting figures from the film and TV universe” — co-presented by CAPE USA (Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment).
