The Fellows' First Weekend in Pictures

Over the past week, the 2006 Tribeca Film Fellows have been busy!

In just a week, they checked in to the festival as filmmakers, met for the first time with their filmmaker mentors, learned about the inner-workings of the Festival by meeting with staff members from various departments, staffed the Our City, My Story Youth Media Gala Screening and much much more. Here are a few shots of our Fellows in action:

Orientation Day!

The Fellows check into the festival as filmmakers, recieve their badges, learn about the following weeks events and get to know each other.
