A Discussion on Verticals and Micro-Drama filmmaking
May 31st, 11am-1pm @ Zoom
Short-form content is nothing new: thanks to social media platforms like Tik-Tok, Instagram, and the now defunct predecessor, Vine, audiences have grown familiar with these scrollable, quick-paced videos. But for the last three years, microdramas have entered the scene, elevating social posts from basic reels into viral microdramas known as Verticals. Presented as minute-long soap operas, Verticals hook you with a few episodes for free before requiring you to pay to see where the story goes. Microdramas are now an $11 billion industry and taking Hollywood by storm. But what's it really like behind-the-scenes-for crew members?
Please join us for a panel discussion with five of our members who will share their experiences and insights on what it's like working on Vertical sets and how it's shaping—or damaging—our industry and craft.
2026 // Beer & Burgers
March 1st, 4-7pm @ The Winslow
Winter is finally thawing so let's get our Beer & Burgers gathering on the books! Network with fellow script supervisors IRL, and catch up with what everyone's been up to!
Food for thought will be NEGOTIATING YOUR DEAL. Most discussions we've had before have focused on deal points, but it can also be a quagmire navigating through the process, the politics, the power structure and other tricky situations. Let's talk about red flags, boundaries and your Do's and Don'ts in a safe space.
