The registration form will allow you to name your price, whether that's 0$ (free ticket), $5, $15, $50, or $500+ 👀 Funds will go towards the cost of food, refreshments, screening fees, and future programming.

Hi, I'm Candide! 👋🏿 I'm a Congolese-Canadian creative technologist who dabbles in video editing, photography, web design + development, workshop facilitation, and event planning. I’m passionate about empowering creatives like you to tell their own stories. candide ꘎ media is the community I'm creating to learn about independent and accessible content creation using free and open source software.

This is my first time hosting "Work In Process", and I created it to celebrate the work of the Frugal Filmmaking workshop participants, and to provide an opportunity to the local creative community to find collaborators for future projects.
