Be inspired by thought-provoking keynotes, workshops, and networking opportunities all designed to transform what's possible for you as a filmmaker.
True mastery isn't built in conference rooms - it's forged in the field, under pressure, when things go wrong and you have to adapt in real time. That's why we're introducing our most challenging component yet: a hands-on bootcamp that runs 6:30-8:30 AM each morning of the Summit.
This isn't about theory. You'll have cameras in hand, working through real scenarios that push your anticipation, presence, and storytelling instincts. We'll start with a core exercise, then progressively ramp up the difficulty - lenses break, cables get yanked, conditions change - all the chaos that happens on real productions when you need to deliver under pressure.
It's hard. On purpose.
Because remarkable filmmakers aren't made in comfort zones. They're built through deliberate practice, immediate feedback, and the kind of challenges that separate those who talk about craft from those who master it.
Limited to 30 participants. Minimal gear required - we handle the setup, you bring the commitment to push your limits and elevate your craft to the next level.

When we made our first documentary, we desperately needed to see how someone actually does this in real life - not a theoretical course, but the actual documents, decisions, and day-to-day reality of bringing a documentary to life. Now we’re bringing that to you.
You’ll get immediate access to:
Our real budget spreadsheets, story development documents, production schedules, partnership pitch decks, and distribution strategy. Plus monthly behind-the-scenes calls with our team where you can ask anything as we create this film in real-time.
This isn’t polished - it’s raw, working documents and real discussions. Perfect for filmmakers ready to level up to feature documentary work and anyone serious about understanding both the business and craft of documentary filmmaking.
