About the Asian American Film Lab

The Asian American Film Lab (Film Lab) is a 501(c)(3) non-profit dedicated to the promotion and support of gender and ethnic diversity in film and television through free monthly educational and outreach programming and the acclaimed annual 72 Hour Shootout filmmaking competition.  This annual competition has inspired hundreds of filmmakers by helping nascent talent take brave steps towards a filmmaking career. The Film Lab was formed in 1998 by a collaborative of New York-based screenwriters whose goals were to hone their craft and to share their knowledge, experience and resources. The membership has grown to comprise professionals, artists and other talented individuals who all share the common goal of creating great film and promoting all filmmakers of color, with a focus on Asian Americans and the visibility of their stories and characters in film and television. The Film Lab offers free monthly programs to the community, ranging from screenings to workshops to seminars.  More information is available on their website at asianamericanfilmlab.org.

The Film Lab is run under the direction of President Jennifer Betit Yen. The Unfinished Works program is coordinated through Lorna Nowve. Daniel Finley coordinates the Industry Spotlight Program. Aurora Betson, David Dennis, Daryl King, and Jodie Chiang all work in different divisions of the Connections program. Acting and Advisory Board members include Aaron Woolfolk, Eric Lin, Bea Soong, John Woo, Erik Lu, and James Kyson.

The Film Lab is a 501(c)(3) not-for-profit organization.
