PHILADELPHIA by Jacob Culp

VC Philadelphia

Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

The Philadelphia chapter started virtually in 2021 due to COVID, but has now transitioned into monthly in-person meetings. We meet for happy hour events around the city, and are planning on expanding into screenings, workshops, and more.

We are focusing on bringing local non-fiction filmmakers together for community, resources, and job opportunities, and are striving to build a chapter that reflects the Philadelphia film community as a whole. All filmmakers are welcome — BIPOC, LGBTQ+, folks with disabilities, and women are encouraged to apply.

Join the Movement!

Collectively, we can create vital "third spaces," beyond work and home, that foster meaningful connections, bolster careers, and inspire collaborations.
