@Njabulo Mpungose is creating a short doc exploring how media consumption evolved from DVDs/CDs to streaming platforms. The key insight? It's not just about technology—it's about the experience. Going from hunting through video rental stores to instantly streaming everything has fundamentally changed how we consume cinema. Key Feedback for Creators: - Start small, but let projects grow gradually (not zero to 100) - Create dialogue between interviews rather than linear talking heads - B-roll/location footage brings cinematic depth—show don't just tell - Transcribe your interviews and mark themes to identify your core narrative Equipment Reality Check: - You don't need the most expensive gear to start - A phone + gimbal can be surprisingly effective for run-and-gun shooting - Understand your camera's limitations (lens focal lengths matter!) - Invest in gear you actually know how to use Passion Projects vs Client Work: - Passion projects take longer—that's okay, you're building skills - Client work has different energy and faster timelines - The sweet spot? Align client projects with your genuine interests The next Call is taking place Monday, February 2nd @ 5pm - 6:30pm

Hi! I'm Josephine LF, film director and scriptwriter. I'm part of the Colombian Film Academy and work from Barcelona. With a touch of multicultural creativity and a spark of femininity, I explore the invisible, shedding light on underrepresented perspectives in cinema. I love to creates films that delve into identity, migration, belonging, and themes such as motherhood and gender roles. My unique vision is shaped by my multicultural identity and a life across different continents. You can find me on Instagram and on LinkedIn if you would like to connect further!
