The documentary project focusing on the growth of a technology community in Philadelphia will have a name and a released trailer before the second annual Philly Tech Week presented by AT&T is finished.
During the Friday night Philly Tech Week Signature Event, documentarians David Dylan Thomas and Maurice Gaston will debut a short two-minute preview of their web series that aims to capture how an innovation community of creatives took root in what has been seen as a violent post-industrial city of decline.
The title of the full series, due out in the fall, will be included in the trailer.
