One of the many talents of creative freelancers is the ability to learn and apply new technology. It seems like we’re always experimenting with new tools and software—Photoshop, After Effects, Illustrator, etc.
Well guess what? Being a creative filmmaker is no different.
At our next meeting of the Atlanta Freelance Forum, we’re going to see how CAD design software and 3D printing are being used in the film industry to make props, animated characters and more.
The Bontrager brothers have been media designers, photographers and videographers for the past 20 years. At Bontrager Twins Productions and Twin Media LLC, they focus on post production
and visual effects.
They also develop entertaining short films and create high-end web videos for corporate America. Since 2008, they have written and produced 26 short films, and have received numerous film awards.
At our Forum meeting, they’ll be showing examples of their past work, as well as the props they’ve designed for their next film.
ONCE AGAIN WE’LL BE MEETING AT THE OLIVER CHAMBLEE
(in the same building as the Leasing Office).
Just north of Brookhaven and south of the Perimeter, The Oliver Chamblee (previously Olmsted Chamblee) is a creative living space and new Freelance Forum Sponsor. You’ll love its comfy furniture and casual vibe.
It also features plenty of meeting space, free parking, and is within walking distance of the Chamblee MARTA station.

No atmospheric pressure here! We network and socialize over sandwiches, spreads or pizza, catch up with new and old friends and introduce ourselves to first-time or frequent guests. Then we settle in for the night’s program and its follow-up Q&A.
Our programs always focus on running a creative business more successfully, with topics that address issues like fees, taxes, law, marketing, selling, interpersonal skills, business organization, technology and more. All to help you work smarter, faster, more efficiently and more profitably. So whether you’re just starting out or you’ve been at this for a while, you get no-fluff information tailored to your needs.
So join us for a meeting. Bring your questions. Hear that hot tip or horror story. And of course, share your own!
