Convening the Creative Community

Past Events We're Proud Of
Film Lab Series
A thriving Film & Media industry doesn’t just benefit filmmakers—it drives growth across multiple sectors. Productions bring in millions in spending on hotels, restaurants, transportation, equipment rentals, and local businesses, while providing high-quality jobs for Indiana’s creative workforce. From camera operators to carpenters, from caterers to post-production specialists, from makeup artists to wardrobe stylists to set designers, a healthy film industry fuels a steady pipeline of work, keeping talent employed, local economies thriving, and Indiana’s creative economy on the map.
In early 2025, Pattern hosted a Film Lab series, in partnership with Hoodox, 12 Stars Media, Heartland Film, and Film Indy that covered a range of topics including:
- The State of Film in Indiana
- 9 Essential Practices for Filmmaking in Indiana featuring Jennifer Haire, Deonna Weatherly, and Stephan Dekemper
- Business, Finance, and Funding for Filmmakers featuring Kevin Grazioli of Bayonet Media
- Using Art to Bring a Movie to Life with the creative team behind “Dirty Laundry”
- Demystifying Film Distribution with Milan Chakraborty, Head of Film at Marginal MediaWorks
This series was made possible with support from the Herb Simon Family Foundation and the Samerian Foundation.
Creative Economy Summit
Since 2023, Pattern has hosted an annual conference focused on the growth and development of Indiana’s creative industries, positioning the state as a hub for innovation and cultural richness. This year’s Creative Economy will take place at the Fishers Art Center on October 13-14, 2025.
