Welcome

Welcome to the PostChat community on Mastodon! We provide a place for Postproduction professionals & friends to discuss topics related to filmmaking, production, postproduction, tech, life, and more. First and foremost, we're about building community, and that doesn't always involve technical discussion, so feel free to go off-topic and have fun.

Who's Behind This?

Cre8ive Beast led by Felipe Baez is the owner of this server, deployed for the public benefit of the production and postproduction area.

How Can I Help?
