My 4th World Media Lab Journey

A Diné and Salvadorian Two Spirit writer, producer, photographer, and storyteller from L.A., Steph Viera writes about their experience as a 4th World Media Lab fellow. The program is a year-long fellowship for emerging and mid-career Indigenous filmmakers, providing opportunities to develop filmmaking skills and networks through festival participation, hands-on training, masterclasses, workshopping projects in development, pitch activities, and meetings with funders and other industry decision-makers.
