From Deck To Domain
Designing a Unified Visual Strategy for Your Film
Join Film Fatales for an online intensive about Designing a Unified Visual Strategy for your film led by Olivia Klaus and moderated by Cassandra Nicholson. When you pitch an investor or executive, the very next thing they do is look you up online. If your pitch deck looks like a masterpiece but your project's website looks like an afterthought, you lose momentum. In this practical, hands-on workshop presented by ShotDeck, filmmaker and designer Olivia Klaus breaks down a workflow to bridge the gap between your pitch and your online presence. We will walk you through the process of pre-visualizing your project, structuring an effective deck, and efficiently transitioning those visual assets into a functional fundraising website. Drawing on her experience designing materials and sites for films like Sugarcane, People of the West, and Death by Numbers, as well as organizations including POV, Women Make Movies, and DOC NYC, Olivia will share actionable design insights you can apply at any stage of your project. Three participants will be selected to receive live feedback on their websites or pitch decks during the workshop. Submit your materials for consideration in advance. Filmmakers of all backgrounds are invited to audit the live class, download sample decks, participate in the chat, and watch the recording afterwards. This event is open to the public. Film Fatales members can log into the Member Portal for their member tickets. Accessibility Notes: This online class will be accessible with self descriptions, auto captions, and ASL upon request. The recording will be available for an additional 48 hours for all participants. Please allow up to 24 hours after the live event for the recording to be posted. Please contact us to request an accommodation. Enjoy!
