Join writer/director/filmmaker/mentor Oliver Park for a free, live Q&A session about breaking into the film and TV industry, and surviving once you’re in.

There will be two sessions - one at 2pm in the afternoon and one at 7pm in the evening. Please book the ticket of your choice.

Oliver has worked with Lionsgate, Warner Bros., Millennium Media and Netflix - and brings firsthand insight into the realities of writing, directing, agents, the industry, and making a living in film. From his viral short (Vicious) to international features and studio deals, Oliver shares how he built his career, and how you can too.

This session is ideal for:

  • Writers, directors, actors, or creatives trying to break into the industry.
  • Film students and emerging filmmakers.
  • Anyone feeling stuck, curious, or ready to level up.

You’ll hear practical advice and honest reflections, and you'll have the chance to ask your own questions live.

Oliver also offers 1:1 mentoring sessions on how to take steps into the industry. If interested, visit his Tabb profile for more details.
