Earlier this year we announced a trial run of a new Creators-in-Residence program. As part of Kickstarter's mission to help bring creative projects to life, we welcomed three teams of filmmakers into our office as they worked on completing their films. We loved working alongside them and learning from their process as they filmed new material, edited footage, and shipped rewards to their backers.

Today we’re announcing a second group of residents that joined the program a few weeks back. Joining us in our Brooklyn HQ for the next three months are:

Sofia Geld and Rebeca Huntt 
Filmmakers Sofia and Rebeca are working with their music producer, Eli, to complete the final cut of "BEBA." The feature-length film follows the life of an Afro-Latina in racially tumultuous New York City.

Robin Cloud 
Robin is a comedian, writer, director and the creator of "You Can't Do That," a short film that addresses why it's not a good idea to pet black people's hair. During the residency, Robin will be working on a short called "2 Dollars," the story of a property manager whose life unravels after deciding not to contribute to the office lotto pool.

Dafina Roberts 
Dafina is working on the campaign for her webseries that explores the life of six friends in New York City, “Giving Me Life (in the Land of the Deadass).”
