Description
Film Independent is a non-profit organization dedicated to independent film and independent filmmakers. We help filmmakers get movies made and seen by audiences. Additionally, we work to increase diversity in the industry by helping filmmakers from underrepresented communities tell their stories. Our 6,300 members have access to discounted equipment, editing suites, casting rooms, a valuable resource library, over 120 free screenings, and 150 educational events every year. Film Independent also produces the Los Angeles Film Festival, celebrating the best of American and international film, and the Independent Spirit Awards, the premier awards event of the independent film community. Our members attend nominee screenings for the Spirit Awards, view nominated films through Netflix, and vote for the winners.
