We’re back with a new edition of Industry Conversations, which connects VC Gold Members with top industry decision makers through online roundtable meetings. 🤝

Join VC and DOC NYC’s Artistic Director, Jaie Laplante, on Tuesday, October 1st at 3pm EST for an intimate behind-the-scenes look at his career journey — from how he and his team are cooking up new initiatives to insights on what goes into the selection process as a programmer and curator. For insight into the festival programming process and beyond, this one’s for you!

Held every few months, these virtual gatherings are all about forging connections, sharing invaluable insights, and breaking barriers between video journalists, documentary filmmakers, and decision makers in the field. Hear directly from commissioning editors, programmers, and funders as they reveal their processes and offer tips on pitching your work, followed by a Q&A session.

RSVP to join this intimate discussion with Jaie. Exclusively available to VC Gold members. To allow for an open and candid conversation, this conversation won’t be recorded.
