The South Atlanta Film and TV Careers Workshop

This event is targeted to residents in the South Side of Atlanta from Districts 1, 4, 10, 11, and 12.  The South Atlanta Film and TV Careers Workshop is an initiative of the Community Jobs Task Force convened by Atlanta City Councilmember Joyce M. Sheperd. This symposium shall provide attendees an introductory and in-depth look into film careers behind the camera from those who do it. This event does not cover acting, voice recoding, screen writing, producing, or other areas done in front of the camera. Sample careers this event will discuss include:  Electricians, Carpenters, Painters, Set Designers, Make-up Artists, Location Scouts, Grips, and more.  Though the event is not a job fair, its goal is to create a pipeline of technically trained community members to obtain jobs in the film industry in years to come.
