I would like to gather a team of film crew members who would like to get together and make independent film together. This group will not just be getting together and chatting about film. It's more about actually making film together. This is only for people who want to take an active and productive role in actually making movies and see the fruits at screenings and festivals.

Love to go to see indie and foreign films and then talk about them afterward? Me, too! Hi, I'm Francesca, an indie filmmaker and trans-media artist who lived in Manhattan for 25 years and thought nothing of calling a friend and suggesting we meet in an hour at one of the many arthouse theaters around town. But, when I moved to NJ I found my friends here did NOT share my tastes so I created the NJ ArthouseFilm Society (just to sound fancy). And, wouldn't you know it, there are tons of people lik …

So you have made your first movie....Congratulations! what now? In the days where Paris Hilton could get a film into Sundance and indie films can't move beyond theatrical release in NY and LA; how DOES one successfully distribute and more importantly MARKET your film without spending $10,000 on a publicist and marketing company? Through a series of meetings and workshops, filmmakers are invited to meet up with our Distribution Executives to discuss their issues and stories trying to get thei …

Once a month, we gather together in a space in West Philly that can fit up to 50 people to watch a movie and talk about it. We generally focus on recent dvd releases of foreign, independent, and documentary films. After watching the film together, we have a discussion which usually lasts about 50 minutes. It's been great to meet people from so many different backgrounds and see the value that diversity adds to our group and discussions. Javaflix is a free event.

Cinema-Femina is a do-it-yourself meetup group that encourages it's members to scout out and see films made by and about women. It's all about watching movies, making friends, having lively discussions and, perhaps most importantly, it's about supporting the filmmakers themselves. Female filmmakers NEED US! They need us to buy tickets the FIRST WEEK their films hit the theaters. Those numbers will determine whether that filmmaker will ever get a distribution deal again. Sucks, huh? But here's th …

Welcome to the Light & Shadow Workshop Group. Our mission is to share with the New York independent film community the knowledge and practical skills needed to excel in the art of lighting and cinematography. When it is your turn to make a movie, you must ask two questions: 1) "Where should I put the LIGHT?" A single strategically placed light can work the magic of four or five incorrectly placed lights. 2) "How to create SHADOW?" Anybody can switch on a light and flood a scene with light and ma …

Sure, writers join writer's groups, actors join actor's groups, directors take the credit, and producers . . . well, they produce, but has anyone thought to hold a recurring party where people who work in different aspects of film can mingle and get to know each other? I started The NYC Filmmaker's Karaoke Group to create a fun place for people who work in film -- that means you set designers, makeup artists, and production assistants -- to meet and mingle with other film professionals. Anyone …

As independent filmmakers, we know how hard it is to find a platform to screen our movies. This group will be a platform for indie filmmakers to screen their movies. The intention of this group is to help indie filmmakers to organize screenings,  to get more people for their screening and help them get some profit from tickets so they can keep making more movies.

Making films is a team effort. New Jersey Filmmakers Network is created to help building a team. Rather than "talking" about making a film, why not gather together and make one. Come join the group, so we help one another projects and ideas. Whether you're a Writer, Actor, Director, Producer or maybe all of the above, this network is to help gather a team of like minded people who want to make films.

This is the group for movies so bad they're good. Does a one star Netflix rating intrigue you? Would you watch Jesus Christ Vampire Hunter simply because a movie with that title must be awesome? Does your list of cinematic classics include things like Barbarella, Zardoz, and Mega Shark vs. Giant Octopus? More importantly, do you want to get together with a room full of people who just said "yes Yes YES" to the above, and spend hours making fun of horrible movies and laughing your ass off? I've b …

Let's watch all those movies critics rave about. We do not have to agree with the critics, and often I don't, but their reviews are a good way to weed out a lot of stuff I definitely do not want to see.
