Festival Overview

Introducing the First Wave

The Advotod Visions Founding Creators Festival will be held on Saturday, September 5th, from 11:00 AM to 3:00 PM at Oak Lawn Library, located at 9427 Raymond Ave, Oak Lawn, Illinois.

This hybrid festival is designed to introduce the first wave of 25 Founding Creators selected to help shape the early creative identity of Advotod Visions. The event will include both an in-person audience experience and virtual access for invited participants who are unable to attend in person.

During the festival, we will premiere the work of the Top 4 selected creators. Each featured screening will be followed by a brief Q&A, giving filmmakers an opportunity to discuss their creative process, the story behind their work, and what it means to be part of the Advotod Visions founding creator community.

Filmmakers can expect a professional hybrid showcase experience that includes creator recognition, audience engagement, live Q&A opportunities, and participation in the early creator community of Advotod Visions. The event is intended to celebrate ownership, creativity, culture, storytelling, and opportunity while building a platform for independent creators producing films, shows, documentaries, podcasts, cartoons, short-form series, and original digital content.
