PITTSBURGH by Willie Shaw

VC Pittsburgh

Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania

VC Pittsburgh represents non-fiction video storytellers based in the Rust Belt and Appalachian heartlands. Situated at the crossroads of the Midwest, Northeast, and South, Pittsburgh has always been a vital location that bridges different American cultures and economies.

Our mission is to address issues like news deserts, freelancer advocacy and equitable representation in the non-fiction film industry. We hold quarterly screenings of recent work, workshops and networking events. If you’d like to get involved, or attend a future gathering, please reach out to the team!

Join the Movement!

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