Since then Travis has made four feature films\, a number of web series and hundreds of shorts. Sounds intense? Meet Tra vis. – “When I first moved out to Los Angeles I took a job as a receptio nist\, answering phones for a small Hollywood company. It didn’t take lo ng for my soul to gain negative weight as I sat at a desk for nine hours a day. Through a creative spark I decided to turn the situation around to my advantage. The weekly series (The Receptionist) introduced the int ernet to a new story starring me and shot right at my desk. It quickly g ained traction and before I knew it I had a small audience. I used this audience to test out other projects including features\, shorts and a we b series”.\n \nAs Travis continued to push himself to create he kept hi s audiences involved\, therefore allowing a fan base to grow and prosper . From those meager beginnings Travis built an amazing and supportive ne twork and several award winning films. Travis will share his experience in building an audience through social media as well as talk about the f reedom to create what you want in a world plagued with remakes\, prequel s and sequels. And talk about the making of his feature film " The Dead Inside "\, which happens to screen on Saturday night.\n\n * We have re -named Saturday's 11 a.m. workshop with indy filmmaker Travis Betz.
