At the Listening Post we believe listening with our full attention and compassion has powerful results.
There is a level of dignity we can offer as one human being to another: We can listen. Everyone's story is different. Some stories are difficult, some daring, some happy, some sad. But there is something we all have in common - Being Heard Matters.
Everyone deserves to be listened to. That is what The Listening Post is here to do - honor you, offer you respect, and hear your story.
Have you always been interested in making films but
couldn't get started because you didn't have money, experience, equipment, a
crew, actors, money, props, location permits, make-up, money, or money? Us too!
Hi, we're a group of local yokels with varying degrees of degrees. We all have
one thing in common, we love to have FUN and we love to make MOVIES! We're
looking for some other people around town who, in the words of Bryan Mills,
have a very particular set of skills (we'll settle for enthusiasm in a
pinch).
Acting, writing, camera, sound and lighting tech, SPFX, production,
animation, story boarding, wardrobe, editing, set design, props - you name it,
we'll exploit it.
We have a MeetUp™ group with the same name (Amateur
Filmmakers of Alaska) and encourage you to join and come discuss the
possibility of collaborating on some awesome and sometimes terrible short films
that will earn you neither money nor the respect of your peers.
Please come and
join us as we trudge the happy road to creative silliness and sometimes seriousness.

At the Listening Post we believe listening with our full attention and compassion has powerful results.
There is a level of dignity we can offer as one human being to another: We can listen. Everyone's story is different. Some stories are difficult, some daring, some happy, some sad. But there is something we all have in common - Being Heard Matters.
Everyone deserves to be listened to. That is what The Listening Post is here to do - honor you, offer you respect, and hear your story.
This 2 hour interactive, informative, and never the same way twice, monthly tutorial, serves as a starting point for anyone who has ever thought about starting their own business.

Hi, we're a group of local yokels with varying degrees of degrees. We all have

animation, story boarding, wardrobe, editing, set design, props - you name it,
we'll exploit it.

Have you always been interested in making films but
couldn't get started because you didn't have money, experience, equipment, a
crew, actors, money, props, location permits, make-up, money, or money? Us too!
Hi, we're a group of local yokels with varying degrees of degrees. We all have
one thing in common, we love to have FUN and we love to make MOVIES! We're
looking for some other people around town who, in the words of Bryan Mills,
have a very particular set of skills (we'll settle for enthusiasm in a
pinch).
Acting, writing, camera, sound and lighting tech, SPFX, production,
animation, story boarding, wardrobe, editing, set design, props - you name it,
we'll exploit it.
We have a MeetUp™ group with the same name (Amateur
Filmmakers of Alaska) and encourage you to join and come discuss the
possibility of collaborating on some awesome and sometimes terrible short films
that will earn you neither money nor the respect of your peers.
Please come and
join us as we trudge the happy road to creative silliness and sometimes seriousness.

At the Listening Post we believe listening with our full attention and compassion has powerful results.
There is a level of dignity we can offer as one human being to another: We can listen. Everyone's story is different. Some stories are difficult, some daring, some happy, some sad. But there is something we all have in common - Being Heard Matters.
Everyone deserves to be listened to. That is what The Listening Post is here to do - honor you, offer you respect, and hear your story.
