FC recently held a workshop entitled Social Media Boot Camp for Film Professionals on Saturday, Nov. 7, 2009 at Mass College of Art. This workshop explored social media tools and web communication strategies for independent filmmakers and media arts organizations, with an emphasis on building a sustainable scalable web presence for creative professionals, as well as for specific projects. Some of the topics included:· Introduction to RSS and web 2.0 technologies, Creating a Twitter and Facebook presence, Domain registration and Industry-specific online communities.

Our award-winning Film Talks program makes a wide variety of films — and the filmmakers who produced them — available to audiences throughout the state at venues such as community centers, Boys & Girls clubs, senior centers, health centers, after-school teen programs, high schools, universities, libraries, youth media programs, prisons, and homeless shelters.

By connecting the public with filmmakers and their work, Film Talks offers opportunities for both to explore relevant issues and to discuss the filmmaking process and the choices filmmakers make. The Massachusetts Cultural Council awarded FC with the “Gold Star” award for Film Talks in 2002 and 2005.
