Masterclass #6: Social Media Marketing
Sisa will take her experiences as an Influencer and help guide the filmmakers to understand the best practices to use social media to brand and market their films. Confused by what a Reel versus a Story is? When to Hashtag? How to draw the most amount of traffic to your pages or posts? What images or text should be enhanced? How to stay on top of it all?
Taught by: Sisa Quispe
Sisa Quispe is a Quechua Aymara award-winning director, writer, producer, speaker, and host in New York City. As an Indigenous woman, her work largely seeks to inspire the preservation of native ways while sharing a decolonizing message. "Kusi Smiles” featuring Renata Flores is a short film about grief and finding a path of healing in the Andes, set to premiere in 2024 as part of the Latino Film Institute Inclusion Fellowship sponsored by Netflix.
Quispe also wrote, produced, and directed "Urpi: Her Last Wish," a film exploring the complexity of the Indigenous identity, which won The Gotham's 5th Annual Student Short Film Showcase. Quispe is currently part of the 4th World Media, providing Indigenous creators a progressive immersion into film.
Her popular TEDx talk, "Re-thinking Who We Are Through A Decolonizing Lens," shares her decolonization journey. Quispe hopes to bring more representation of Indigenous women's perspectives and to continue cultivating a path for Indigenous youth to develop their voices.
