We know you’re dying to find out who received funding assistance for the Filmworks Innovation Lab, and we’re dying to tell you! Please join Washington Filmworks at our State of the Industry presentation at the Seattle International Film Festival tomorrow, Saturday, June 8. Celebrate the achievements of the filmmakers who participated in the Lab. Learn more about several really exciting projects from Washington filmmakers who are thinking “outside the box.” Plus those in the crowd 21 and over should join us afterwards at Solo Bar to celebrate with the filmmakers. Full program description:

The State of the Industry with Amy Lillard – Sunday June 8, 4:00 pm to 5:00 pm at the SIFF Film Center Theater.

With productions increasing in Washington, independent filmmakers have to stay on the pulse of new resources and incentive programs. Join Amy Lillard, Executive Director of Washington Filmworks, to learn how the film office, the production incentive and the statewide industry can work together to bring filmmakers in Washington State to the next level. Washington Filmworks will also celebrate funding assistance recipients from the Filmworks Innovation Lab, a program designed to invest in our local creative community and to encourage the development of original storytelling that capitalizes on new forms of production and technology. This event is free. MORE INFORMATION HERE.
