Workshop: How to Greenlight Yourself

Kickstart your filmmaking journey with a dynamic conversation led by independent filmmaker Selina Ringel, who successfully self-produced her own feature films. This session will provide practical tools, real-world insights, and actionable advice on how to bring your first feature to life—on your own terms. She will also break down how to find your audience, how to think outside the box and develop partnerships that add value to your project, and how to think about creating without waiting for permission or money. Whether you're in development or just dreaming big, you'll leave with the inspiration and strategies to take that crucial first step.

WHAT WE WILL LEARN

Attendees will walk away with practical tools and inspiration to carve out their own path in filmmaking—learning how to think outside the box, identify and connect with their audience, explore alternative distribution options, and stop waiting for permission to start creating. The session will empower filmmakers to take charge of their stories from concept to release. At the end of the panel, Selina will have books available for purchase and will be signing copies for those interested.
