WHAT YOU’LL LEARN:
Making mountain films is much like the adventures we embark upon outdoors. We begin at the base with a broad idea and work our way to the top, refining our concept until we reach the peak, where we have the opportunity to share what we’ve made with the world.

Filmmaker Trixie Pacis shares her journey and recent experiences producing/directing her first three short outdoor documentary films — from developing stories (the base) to distributing them on the mountain festival circuit (the peak).
The second half of the workshop will transition into a free-flowing group discussion. Participants will have an opportunity to ask Trixie anything about her experience (particularly with story development, production, direction, or festival distribution). More than just a Q&A, participants are encouraged to engage in conversation about their own projects by pitching ideas, asking for input, and exploring actionable next steps.
Stick around after from 1:30-3:30pm for the January 2025 KSBI Meetup and watch Trixie’s short docs Wild Aerial (16m) and Wildflowers (37m), followed by a Q+A and networking.
