The Second Week of our Short Film Lab

The second week of our Short Film Lab was a whirlwind of creativity and excitement!

During this session, participants had the opportunity to pitch their unique short film concepts to a discerning panel of judges and their peers. They engaged in a dynamic Q&A session, delving into the nuances of their storylines, visual strategies, and plans for distribution.

We extend our heartfelt gratitude to our distinguished judges—Yazmeen Kanji, Eman Pathan, Qais Pasha, Amreen Ghouse, and Safiyyah Ally — for their invaluable insights and feedback.

Out of the many compelling pitches, four short film projects were selected. Participants will now collaborate in teams to bring these visions to life.

We are immensely grateful for the support from the Canadian Race Relations Foundation, Charles Street Video, and the Documentary Organization of Canada, whose contributions have been pivotal in realizing this program.
