Chanel and Tribeca Join Forces with A-Listers for the 10th Annual Through Her Lens Program in New York City
New York City was buzzing with excitement as fashion powerhouse Chanel and prestigious film festival Tribeca came together to celebrate the 10th annual Through Her Lens program. This unique program, which focuses on supporting and empowering female filmmakers, brought together some of the biggest names in the entertainment industry for a three-day event filled with workshops, panels, and networking opportunities.
The Through Her Lens program, created by Chanel and Tribeca in 2015, has become a highly anticipated event in the film industry. It aims to provide emerging female filmmakers with the resources and support they need to bring their stories to life. Over the past nine years, the program has helped launch the careers of many talented women in the industry, and this year’s event was no exception.
The 10th annual Through Her Lens program kicked off with a star-studded luncheon at the iconic Balthazar restaurant in Soho. The event was attended by A-listers such as Julianne Moore, Katie Holmes, and Naomi Watts, who all showed their support for the program and its mission. The luncheon was followed by a welcome dinner at the exclusive Gramercy Park Hotel, where the guests were treated to a sneak peek of the upcoming Chanel Spring-Summer 2022 collection.
The next two days were filled with workshops and panels led by industry professionals, including directors, producers, and screenwriters. The participants had the opportunity to learn from the best and receive valuable feedback on their projects. They also had the chance to network with their peers and build connections that could potentially lead to future collaborations.
One of the highlights of the program was the Master Class with Academy Award-winning actress and filmmaker Regina King. King, who has been a vocal advocate for women in the industry, shared her experiences and insights on navigating the male-dominated world of Hollywood. Her inspiring words resonated with the participants, who left the session feeling empowered and motivated to continue pursuing their dreams.
The program concluded with a closing dinner at the iconic Tribeca Grill, where the participants had the chance to showcase their projects to a panel of industry professionals. The dinner was attended by celebrities such as Diane Kruger, Maggie Gyllenhaal, and Rachel Brosnahan, who showed their support for the talented filmmakers and their projects.
Through Her Lens has been a catalyst for change in the film industry, providing a platform for women to tell their stories and have their voices heard. Over the years, the program has supported a diverse range of projects, including documentaries, short films, and feature films, and has helped bring attention to important social issues.
Chanel and Tribeca’s commitment to promoting diversity and inclusivity in the entertainment industry is commendable. Their partnership has not only provided opportunities for emerging female filmmakers but has also brought attention to the need for more diverse voices in the industry.
As the 10th annual Through Her Lens program comes to an end, the participants leave with a renewed sense of purpose and determination. They have not only gained valuable knowledge and skills, but they have also become part of a supportive community of women in the industry.
In a male-dominated industry, programs like Through Her Lens are essential in creating a more inclusive and diverse landscape. With the support of influential brands like Chanel and prestigious organizations like Tribeca, the future looks bright for women in film, and we can’t wait to see the projects that will come out of this year’s program.
Congratulations to Chanel and Tribeca for another successful year of Through Her Lens, and to all the talented filmmakers who participated, we can’t wait to see what you will accomplish next. Keep shining and breaking barriers, one film at a time.
