We’re excited to welcome back Demetrius Witherspoon - award-winning writer, director, author, and owner of DV Entertainment Pictures! Demetrius is returning to Danville to share his knowledge and highlight the power of community in achieving your goals.
With experience directing actors from The Walking Dead, Star Wars, and Marvel, and as the creator of the award-winning sci‑fi series Submerge Universe (streaming on Amazon Prime, Apple TV, Tubi, and Submerge Universe TV), he brings a wealth of industry insight and real-world expertise.
🎥 What to expect:
This engaging session offers a practical introduction to low‑budget filmmaking, showing how anyone can bring their story to life with creativity, community and resourcefulness. Whether you’re dreaming of directing, writing, editing (or just curious about the process), you’ll leave with essential techniques for crafting compelling films without a big budget.
Don’t miss this chance to learn from a visionary creator and be inspired to tell your own story!
