The Film Lounge

Get Up Girl graduate Danielle Stallings has announced a new film Meetup Group for filmmakers and film aficionados called The Film Lounge. Based in Ventura County, just outside of the studio zone, The Film Lounge is a place for film lovers to rekindle their love affair with film and brush up on vital skills outside of the pressure cooker of the L.A. industry scene. Meetings and screenings will be held on weekends (and some evenings) at Essential Wine Co., a new wine bar in Camarillo, just 30 minutes from the west valley and 45 minutes from the west side. (Also, a stone's throw from the premium outlet mall.)

The Film Lounge will be that relaxed film enclave we all wish existed to support filmmakers reach their potential through inspiration and networking. The first meeting will be held on June 28th to screen "Visions of Light" a gorgeous documentary about cinematography, likened to "going through a film museum". In July, Danielle will be conducting a film business seminar to demystify important employment and rights documents artists will likely encounter when hired.

To join the group and learn about upcoming meetings, go to Meetup.com and search for "The Film Lounge". Membership and meetings are FREE.
