🌎 About the Event

Frame Theory: A Filmmakers Club is San Antonio’s new creative underground — a space built for storytellers, by storytellers.
After our incredible inaugural meetup, we're back with Session 2: The Process — a hands-on filmmaking night designed to sharpen your craft, expand your toolkit, and connect you with the creators shaping SA’s film future.

This time, we’re gathering inside The Form at 500 Sixth, one of the city’s most beautiful creative co-working spaces.
Expect huge projection walls, an outdoor firepit courtyard, and a cozy chai tea + ramen bar to keep the creative energy flowing.


🎥 What to Expect
🔧 Workshop Night — “The Process”

A hands-on dive into the craft of filmmaking led by Thai Tea Films + The Down Market:

• Sound recording essentials
• Camera ops & movement fundamentals
• Post-production workflows

Final screenings will take place at Session 3.

We’ll be projecting demo clips and workshop breakdowns across The Form’s massive wall installation — a cinematic backdrop for everything we’re building.
