Hey everyone,
I’ve been an Indietalker for a little over three years now, and I’ve had such a great community experience. While I’ve learned so much here, I still struggle to find film funding resources for my short film projects, so I’ve decided to launch a funding contest (found at thefilmfund.co) to help out other filmmakers who may face the same struggle. The contest has yet to launch, but I have a landing page set up to collect email addresses from those interested. It would be incredible if I could get fellow Indie Talk users involved in the contest, as it’s really geared toward indie filmmakers. Here’s a little more info below that I have on my website. Let me know what you think!
“Starting out as an independent filmmaker not based in Los Angeles or New York City, I found myself struggling to raise financing and find resources for my film projects, and it appeared that many contests were dominated by those who already had industry experience or access to better resources and crew.
The Film Fund is a short film contest designed to level the funding field, as no advantage is given to entrants based on industry experience. Effective storytellers should be able to succinctly convey the vision they have for their projects. That's the basis of the contest.”
