Independent filmmaking is the art of embracing limitations, working with available resources and making much with what one has. What are creative and financial responsibilities of filmmakers? How do one break free from the budget abyss? A panel of filmmakers from 13 Little Pictures will share their process and perspectives on THE VALUE OF INDEPENDENT FILMMAKING @ The POD, Level 16, National Library/7pm/20 Sep. Pre-register for this event by emailing your full name, age, and contact number to writetous@siff.sg with ’13LP Talk’ as the subject heading.

Last but not least, we will be working with 15 other filmmakers from Singapore and the region in the 13 Little Pictures FILM LAB from the 19-25 Sep 2011. If you are keen to watch our work in progress on 25 Sep at the Sinema, contact us.
