Happy Autumn and Merry Halloween Mayhem! This time of year brings out the ghoul in some of us, and the FilmNet event is no exception. Let’s have a ghost of a good time networking, showing off our creativity, and exploring the future of film, TV and streaming as we discover the myriad new ways to make AI work for us.

The AI panel will include musician Alex Guillen, product strategist Lane Allison, artists Amy Alexander and Ava Aviva Avnisan, storyteller Marilyn McPhie, and writer/filmmaker Emily Greenberg. Alex will also be playing AI-enhanced music at the opening of the event. We'll enjoy standup comedy with Anissa Ocansey as well as a costume contest and a Halloween-themed sketch.

You don't have to wear a costume . . . we proved the event is a whole lot of fun if only a few choice kooks agree to make spectacles out of themselves.

We’ll have more 15-second introductions and better opportunities to make ALL the connections you really want to make. Back by popular demand, sushi and poke bowls by celebrity Chef Mer! And as always, we’ll be enjoying a red carpet and photo stations c/o Tony Amat and our partner R3 Productions, drinks for sale, a studio tour (get there at 5 pm!), more free headshots and lots of glitzy, campy, Hollywood-style fun.

Welcome again to Larry Poole and the SAG-AFTRA monthly networking event, which is going to be a regular part of FilmNet gatherings moving forward.

Filmmakers Network San Diego's Monthly Event is back!!! At long last we’re starting up monthly networking events again to support the local film community. It's going to be even more hands-on, interactive and productive this time. Besides networking and hosting guest speakers, we will showcase short films and promo material, work on pitches and invite industry gatekeepers to hear them, put on fun games and contests as well as many more enriching activities. Networking includes supporting local producers, creators, actors, crew and film professionals in their effort to assemble teams and develop content and marketing opportunities, along with original FilmNet content and a documentary of our group, events, participants and their projects. Feel free to bring a guest or two! Below is the schedule for our first meeting:

5:00–6:30 / Studio tour, doors open for sign-up and seating
6:30–7:15 / Intro and success stories
7:15–7:45 / Standup comedy, Halloween sketch
7:45–8:30 / Panel, Q & A, winner of costume party announced

Actors, please bring headshots if you have them. Business cards or any promotional materials a plus. $5.00 admission at the event.
