Build the Shit You Want to See

A Panel Discussion with Q&A

Tired of waiting for permission? This session is about rolling up your sleeves and creating the films, businesses, collectives, and opportunities you wish already existed. It’s for the rebels, the innovators, and the doers who know that if we want change, we have to build it ourselves.

Hosted by Lois (SHORTIES), with Sara Harrak (British-Moroccan Writer and Director), Shannon George (professionally known as Shantí, (Founder and CEO of Brownstone Studios), Comfort Arthur (British-born Ghanaian award-winning animator, illustrator and visual artist).

This conversation will dig into the highs, lows, and practical realities of making your own lane. From crowdfunding to creative resilience, expect sharp insights and raw honesty.

Proudly sponsored by SHORTIES, this panel is a rallying cry to stop waiting and start building.
