The first night of MPI and FEE's Filmmaking and Entrepreneurship seminar.
Another Year, Another Successful Filmmaking and Entrepreneurship Seminar! 

In March, nearly 30 young creatives from around the world joined the Moving Picture Institute and FEE in Los Angeles for our fourth annual Filmmaking and Entrepreneurship Seminar. Aspiring filmmakers learned that they can make a living, and even change the world, by telling pro-freedom stories

Learning directly from professional filmmakers in the Moving Picture Institute network, attendees explored how to break into the industry, make the most of their first Hollywood jobs, find and market to film audiences, and more. Though the seminar largely took place at the Moving Picture Institute's West Los Angeles office, attendees also enjoyed a studio tour and an off-site screening night of MPI's short films.

Our attendees gave the seminar a average overall experience rating of 9.7/10. Here's what they had to say: 

"I traveled all the way from Ecuador for this seminar, and it's one of the best decisions I've ever made."

"I really loved discussing filmmaking with professionals in the filmmaking community. That's an opportunity I didn't get elsewhere, even in film school."

"The Filmmaking and Entrepreneurship Seminar didn't just calm my fears [about making a living as a filmmaker], it gave me the tools to share my liberty-loving art with the masses, and I cannot express my gratitude enough."

Silence U Part 2: What Has Yale Become? | We the Internet Documentary
WATCH and SHARE "Silence U Part Two: What Has Yale Become?"
Watch We the Internet TV's most popular video! 

Today the Moving Picture Institute's comedy web channel We the Internet TV released a new short documentary "Silence U Part 2: What is Yale Becoming?", the follow-up to its 2016 viral hit "Silence U: Is the University Killing Free Speech and Open Debate?

The film examines Yale's notorious controversy surrounding administrative controls over Halloween costumes. The film asks: If universities can't tolerate debate about controversial issues, how can they call themselves places of learning? The 12-minute documentary has already garnered press in the New York Times and the College Fix.

"The silence from students shocked me," said the film's director Rob Montz. "Forget what's right -- students openly told me they wouldn't say anything controversial or speak out against the administration because it could jeopardize their job prospects."  

"Although our comedy videos typically focus on satirizing politics, We the Internet TV released 'Silence U' to support open discourse," said Lou Perez, comedian and We the Internet TV's head writer. "This is more than a documentary about Yale -- we're seeing this story play out on campuses nationwide. This belongs on We the Internet because humor can't survive without free speech."

We the Internet TV, through its podcast and live show "Unsafe Space," will host a panel about the video tonight at 8 p.m. at The Lab at The Hollywood Improv. Watch the event via live-stream here.
