The Tala Master Class of 2009 is over - but the interaction continues from coast to coast. The Master Class has been intense and interesting and, for most of us, illuminating as to promise, process and procedure both in Tel Aviv and Los Angeles. Please stay tuned to us for further information and for our Alumni Club. We wish all participants the best on their way to develop their projects, salute the pitchers who have ventured ahead, and applaud our Masters for having trained us to be the best that we can. And then some.
We thank the Jewish Federation of LA and the Tel Aviv Los Angeles Partnership for the opportunities we've had in the Master Class and those that are foreseen ahead. We thank all our sponsors, supporters and friends - and plunge ahead to TALA MASTER CLASS 2010!

TEL AVIV LOS ANGELES 11^th MASTER CLASS (2009) initiated by the Jewish Federation and the Tel Aviv Los Angeles Partnership in collaboration with Tel Aviv Cinematheque and Tel Aviv University offers 10 days of professional master classes, workshops and special events for film and television.
