Among all the talented people in this industry, how do you ensure you stand out? 

You might be wondering, ‘What can I do to make a lasting impression? How can I captivate people’s attention and foster connections and potential collaborations?’ And this is just the beginning. Once you have a project in hand, the challenge shifts to standing out to potential collaborators and garnering the support needed. Furthermore, after your film is complete, how do you navigate the film festival circuit, ensuring your work shines among the thousands of other submissions?

If you’ve been asking yourself similar questions, join us for this program featuring filmmaker Ramfis Myrthil! Ramfis is an advisor for Sundance Film Institute’s Sundance Collab producing program and is a co-founder of the Hyphen Grant, a program built to fund, develop, support, and champion Caribbean filmmakers and the development of the film industry throughout the Caribbean and West Indies. Recently, he became the co-president of the Black TV & Film Collective, where he continues to bring more black voices into the world of film and television. Ramfis Productions is a company created by Caribbean filmmakers devoted to telling and championing global and commercial stories with a focus on BIPOC, women-led, and queer stories from all over the world.
