Independent Filmmaking

**🛑 PLEASE NOTE: This is a private, request-only event. Do not show up at the placeholder map location.** ### **What we do** Welcome to **Hackalona** — a weekly co-working and demo session for independent makers, developers, bootstrappers, and digital entrepreneurs. We gather to work alongside like-minded peers - fellow developers and creators who are all building and launching their own independent projects. This isn't a passive networking event, not a marketing pitch, not a hackathon. ### **Is this for you?** **✅ This is a perfect match if:** * You are an indie hacker, developer, or bootstrap founder actively coding your own SaaS, mobile, or web apps. * You are entirely focused on building, launching, and growing your own independent startup/product. **❌ This is NOT for you if:** * You plan to do only freelance client work or tasks for your primary day job during the session. * You are not a coder/developer (we are a highly technical, hands-on building group). * You don't have a specific project yet or haven't decided what you are working on. ### **The Agenda** * **10:30 - 11:30** \- arrival * **11:30** \- Intros \(a little about yourself \+ what you're working on\) * **13:00** \- Lunch \(if you want\) * **17:00** \- Demos \(share what you made today\) * **18:00** \- Drinks / Events ### **How to attend** To keep our unique vibe and maintain a highly productive atmosphere for everyone, we don't publish the exact venue address here. 1. **Go to our website**: hackalona.com and apply to join our main Telegram group. 2. Once approved, you will receive the exact location and details in Telegram. **Coworking space fee:** The venue/coworking space where we meet charges a flat **€10 day-pass fee** for using their space, internet, and facilities. You will pay this directly to the venue.

Based on the novel Roadside Picnic, it is NO picnic, but rather one of the masterpieces of world cinema. Andrei Tarkovsky's 1979 Soviet sci-fi classic, recounts the expedition of a writer and professor led by a mysterious guide called "The Stalker." to a futuristic wasteland called "The Zone." Dripping with existential dread, it continually presents strange occurrences that will have us debating the meaning of what we've just viewed right through the ending. *Stalker* (1979) can be streamed for free on HBOMax, the Criterion Channel or Kanopy. It's also available for rent on Amazon Prime and AppleTV. The Columbus Library has two copies on disc.

Welcome to Casual Boardgames, where we enjoy classic tabletop games and social deduction games while bonding over good food, drinks, and great conversations. 
We started this group to meet new people and make new friends, and bonding over games in a relaxed atmosphere is a great way to do that. We currently meet near route 23 and Polaris Parkway, and this is close to areas like Powell, Lewis Center, Worthington, and parts of Westerville and Columbus. 
Feel free to bring your own games or play one of the many games our members bring. If you are inexperienced, we will help you learn. 
Here are just a few examples of the kind of games we play. 
Tabletop/board games: Splendor, Catan, Azul, Dominion, 7 Wonders… 
Social deduction games: Code Names, Chameleon, Werewords… 
IMPORTANT: 
1. While we love playing a variety of games and competing, we are not just about the games. We interact and talk while playing, and this leads to a lot of laughter and fun. If you just want to compete and focus solely on the game, then this is probably not the group you are looking for. 
2. Many people join groups like this and never (or rarely) show up after weeks or months. If you join and never really come, we will eventually remove you from the group as a courtesy to our members. Why? Because limiting group conversations (on the app) to regular members makes communication and planning much easier. Also, while it may be rare, it protects members from people who join because they are interested in following a person instead of having a real interest in our group. If you get removed, it is just because you haven’t come, and we follow this protocol as a courtesy to our regular game players.

Wild Thursday: THE INVITE on Thursday, July 9th at Cinemark Polaris! Join us as we get together to see the spicy and hilarious comedy-drama-romance from A24, THE INVITE! The film stars Olivia Wilde (who also directs) along with Seth Rogen, Penélope Cruz and Edward Norton, and follows a dinner party that spirals into unexpected places! Here’s a description, trailer and plan for this event: DESCRIPTION: Joe and Angela's marriage is on thin ice. When they invite their enigmatic upstairs neighbors for a dinner party, the night spirals into unexpected places. The film is an English language remake of the Spanish film The People Upstairs by Cesc Gay. It is directed by Olivia Wilde, who also stars alongside Seth Rogen, Penélope Cruz and Edward Norton. BUZZ & ACCLAIM: The Invite premiered to rave reviews at this year’s Sundance Film Festival and sparked an immediate bidding war to acquire it! The film is earning a 93% positive rating with critics calling it, “marvelously entertaining” and “endlessly relatable, sometimes uncomfortably so!” Others call it, “a smart, sophisticated and incisively acted” comedy “with plenty to say and even more laughs to share.” TRAILER: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJ19I9q_hOQ](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OJ19I9q_hOQ) PLAN: Details for this event have already been confirmed!

Join us as we get together to get together to help those in need at this CMG Gives Back event! We have a great little community of Movie Group friends so rather than see a movie this time, we’ll help “Create a better world” by helping serve those in need. NOTE: We’re switching it up this time and going with a DINNER shift on Mon, 7/6. Here are complete details and our plan for this event: FAITH MISSION – GRANT KITCHEN: The Faith Mission kitchen and dining room serves residents 3 meals a day, every day of the year. For this event, our group will help prepare food, serve meals, assist residents in the dining room, wash dishes, and clean surfaces. PLAN: We will be preparing / serving / cleaning for DINNER from 4:30 to 6:30pm and have space for a total of 7 volunteers. Please arrive at 4:20pm and wear closed-toe shoes and long pants. LOCATION: Faith Mission – Grant Kitchen is located at 245 N. Grant Ave. Enter the kitchen at Dock 1 (in the back of the building), indicated in the attached map. On-site parking in the adjacent lot and street parking are available in the surrounding area. Below are some links / attachments with additional info/details: IMPORTANT REMINDER: Our group will be providing all of the volunteers on this day so a firm RSVP count is essential. Please only sign up if you are certain you’ll be able to attend. If something unavoidable comes up, please try to update your RSVP no later than one week prior to the event. With few exceptions, no shows or cancelations within 1 week of the event will not be eligible for future CMG Gives Back events. I appreciate your understanding as we try to ensure the agencies have the volunteers needed to provide the essential services they provide to the vulnerable population they serve. Our Partner Agency for this event is Lutheran Social Services! A huge THANK YOU to those volunteering at this (or any of our previous or future) CMG Gives Back events! Look forward to seeing you there, Dan
