”Brainstorm The Film”: Setting Out to Explore Life on the Bipolar Spectrum

On this episode of Making Media Now, we are proud to introduce to the world a new filmmaking and multi-platform initiative for which Filmmakers Collaborative is the fiscal sponsor. The initiative is called Brainstorm The Film and host Michael Azevedo is joined by Bonnie Waltch and Sara Schley, the producing team behind this comprehensive and far-reaching project.    Currently in the development phase, Brainstorm The Film is an unprecedented initiative that combines inspiring stories of people with lived experience of being on the bipolar spectrum, cutting-edge science, and breakthrough treatments in one coherent narrative. To learn more: https://brainstormthefilm.com/   On Wednesday, Feb 8, 2023—from 8 to 9pm ET—Filmmakers Collaborative will be hosting a FREE Zoom event featuring members of the producing team along with key advisors and participants. This event will serve as a wonderful opportunity to learn more about the goals of the film and its outreach efforts, while also giving attendees an opportunity to pose questions about the project and about life on the bipolar spectrum. And, as importantly, the event will serve an invitation to attendees contribute what they can to ensure the project’s success.
