FILM INDEPENDENT'S 2006 PRODUCERS LAB DEADLINE EXTENDED TO AUGUST 28,
2006
Film Independent is now accepting submissions for its annual Producers
Lab that will take place in Los Angeles during October and November
2006. The deadline for submissions is August 28, 2006 (postmarked).
Sponsored by Technicolor, Film Independent's Producers Lab is an
intensive seven-week program designed to help filmmakers develop skills
as creative independent producers. Lab fellows develop a strategy and
formal action plan for bringing their projects to fruition -including a
budget, schedule, and business plan. Fellows have one-on-one meetings
with established producers, directors, and other industry professionals
who act as advisors to them on their specific projects.
A maximum of ten producers are accepted into the program each year.

Yong Kim's Sundance-winning film, In Between Days; Jessica Sanders'
After Innocence, short listed for the Academy Awards' documentary

production with Lisa Kudrow; Dana Jackson's Park starring Billy
