These recordings will be uploaded to our educational platform, so you can watch any missed sessions at your convenience.
How it works:
Attend as many live workshops as your schedule allows.
For any workshop you can’t attend in person, you’ll receive post-event access to the recorded session through our online educational platform.
Details on how to access these recordings will be sent to all registered attendees after the festival.
This ensures you won’t miss out on valuable content, even if your schedule is full or there are time conflicts between screenings and workshops.
