  • DIY or DIT
  • Intersectional feminism
  • Filming on the street. Documenting. Things that are not covered by mainstream media
  • Oakland
  • Faces not seen/ voices not heard (this is a good tagline)

• == Short Film Festival Updates == 20 minutes

• • Price policy: Entrance fee? Food? Drinks?
• Suggestion from Noemie: We can't technically sell alcohol but we could get away with it by selling coupons at the door for drinks and food.
• Showing some of our works for the sake of fundraising. (So that people see what we do)
• Next Tuesday 19th: Film Night, final decisions for the selection. Customizing the award names and certificate to each film?
• Poster (deadline?) Sarah and the group is going to work on the poster this weekend.
• Night of the 29th: logistics.

Food: Sarah is going to do the cooking. She wants to charge ex[?] amount for food, she wants to know what everyone else thinks. She thinks her prices are reasonable. We are trying to work out where we are going to get our food at the best possible prices. Cost: entrace fee would be a suggested donation of 5 dollars. No one will be turned away, and entrace fee will be a sliding scale.
