Do you love film? Do you have a story to tell?

If so, we want to see you in action. The AT&T Mobility & Entertainment is inviting you to join us and make a short film. We're looking for creative thinkers and doers like you to join us at this special film-making event in Los Angeles. All skill levels are welcome! We need a wide variety of skills and ideas to create the best films possible.

At AT&T, we have adopted a progressive approach to innovation - one that embraces openness and encourages collaboration between entrepreneurs, professionals, hobbyists and beginners of all genders and backgrounds. We believe that working together as a community provides a critical spark that enhances creativity and creates something awesome.
