WHO WE ARE

frame:work is the first professional society for creative pixel production, in all its forms. The discipline has grown into something that fills arenas, wraps buildings, and drives film sets, but the people doing the work have never had a formal home. Join the Crew.

MEMBERSHIP BENEFITS

All members are listed in the Member Directory.

A listing in the member directory puts your name, your skills, and your work where this industry actually looks. Producers staff from it. Peers refer from it. Be known & get found.

Members receive discounts to all events

The annual conference and regional meetups are where this community does some of its best work. No victory laps — just people showing each other how the work actually gets done.

Members can register as community mentors.

Nobody learned this work from a manual. Someone showed you, on a job, probably under pressure. Mentorship makes that transfer deliberate — members guiding new talent and each other, so the knowledge this field runs on keeps moving.

Anyone can join our Discord. Members get private channels.

The conference happens once a year. The Discord happens all the time. Jobs get posted, questions get answered, advice gets offered, and problems get solved in public - usually by someone who hit the same wall last month.

Members can post events to a community calendar.

A shared calendar for: trainings, meetups, trade shows, and the gatherings that spring up around them. The kind of knowledge that used to live in a hundred separate heads, kept by the community, for the community.

Why Join?

For years we organized ourselves informally, in group chats, on loading docks, in conference hallways. Membership turns that network into an institution, one that can speak for the practice and not just gather its practitioners.

Community Values

Stay Human

Tech is our common language. but humanity is ultimately our common cause. It is imperative that we embrace honest failure over performative success.

Break Boundaries

We work outside the 16:9 box; we play at the edges of possibility. We leverage technology in service of human creativity.

Be Useful

Human creativity is a precious resource that should be nurtured and shared, not because it is scarce, but because when catalysized through collaboration it becomes ever more substanive and abundant.

Don’t Stop

Stay curious, ambitious, generative and generous. We work hard to make LIVE easy.

Your support matters

Video content has gone from an accent piece to the entire story, yet we still fight to be in the conversations that define our work. Your membership funds that fight.

COMMUNITY EVENTS

Whether at our annual conference, satellite events or on our community forum—we gather to share and learn from each other.

Membership puts collective weight behind changing how this discipline is represented, how our value gets understood by the clients and partners we work with, and how the next generation finds its way in. We are not the computers we show up with. The practice is human, and an organization that makes that case full-time needs steady footing.

A Place to Belong

The deepest reason to join is identity. Membership is how you say you are part of the creative pixel community, and how the community says it back. It gives you standing to reach out to any peer here as a resource, and it gives you a place where the challenges of your projects are already understood, no twenty minutes of explanation required.
