Reel 2 Real International Youth Film Festival is rapidly approaching and there are some great opportunities we want to share.
Talent Lab
Talent Lab is an excellent opportunity for youth to develop media literacy, cultural awareness, and global understanding. These weekday matinee screenings of thought-provoking films are followed by a Q&A with the filmmakers, producers and actors for in depth discussion about content, message and aesthetic. Viewing guides are provided to all participating teachers, offering useful questions, activities and additional resources for integrating each program’s content into the classroom
Fee: Film (per student) $5
Film + Workshop* (per student) $8
Teachers and Chaperones are free
Youth Media Conference
This day-long conference combines a panel discussion on Representation in Popular Culture, New Perspectives (a short film program), a job fair for the local entertainment industry, and a showcase for youth-made content. The 3rd annual Youth Media Conference is designed to inspire young people to become creators, and will align them with the tools to engage in constructive critique (see flyer and web for details)
Fee: $10 / student in advance (pre-registration is required)
