This summer, the Vancouver Asian Film Festival kicks off its Mighty Asian Moviemaking Marathon campaign with a special VAFF Industry Insight Panel Series event, “Diversity in Filmmaking”, happening on June 16th, 2018 from 10am-5pm in the Joyce Walley Room at the Museum of Vancouver.
Come spend the day with the Mighty Asian Moviemaking Marathon’s new Creative Producers Mayumi Yoshida and Nach Dudsdeemaytha to explore how people of colour are impacting various aspects of filmmaking and how others can do so as well. Mayumi and Nach will lead panel discussions in 4 sessions about different areas of film development and production. The day will be geared toward providing insight and insider perspectives for aspiring and current filmmakers of diverse backgrounds, and those in the industry who aim to work with diverse representation both in front of and behind the camera.
