Mentors bring AFI DCL productions to life, creating the content and dialogue that advance the digital media industry.

When media properties are accepted for development in the AFI DCL, they are paired with a team of industry experts or "mentors." This production team works together in a hands-on production or planning process. AFI DCL mentors gain a high profile and sustained credibility among industry peers and, more importantly, potential clients.

AFI DCL mentors also gain:

• New business opportunities through consistent exposure to a wide range of potential new clients

• Participation in the industry's only professional US digital content R&D; environment

• Functional applications for quality entertainment properties built using your products or services

• Networking opportunities

• Exposure and promotion at AFI DCL industry events

• Potential speaking opportunities at AFI DCL panels and presentations

• Potential press opportunities via coverage of AFI DCL events and activities

• Close association with AFI

• AFI Corporate Circle benefits commensurate with level of sponsorship

Mentors contribute expertise and hands-on production support for an AFI DCL team, participate at AFI DCL events and participate in weekly team conference calls. For a breakout of specific mentor roles, see the AFI DCL Mentor Application.
