[NEohioPAL] Cleveland IndieClub Meeting - Free - Oct 21

[Johnny K. Wu]

Cleveland IndieClub FREE Monthly Networking Meeting - October 21, 2007

 

 

After a small break, The Cleveland IndieClub monthly meeting is back, with
more shorts, more fun, and more spirtis!

 

The Cleveland IndieClub meets every month (usually the 3rd Sunday), free of
charge,  for those who have the passion for making movies using film or
video (whether it is in acting, directing, producing, writing, lighting or
any other skill) and are looking for others who have similar interests.

 

So, take a night out with us to mingle, network, socialize and share your
expertise with other local filmmakers as previously has proven that
IndieClub does work (example of collaboration works can be seen everywhere).
In our past meetings, over 65 people had participated, no attitude, no
drama, no ego allowed.
