Indie Gathering's blog

Every August, filmmakers from around the world meet up for The Indie Gathering International Film Festival. The Indie Gathering is more than just a film festival - it's a place where filmmakers can gather together with the audience for one great weekend!

 

We are the Alternative for Independent, Underground and Experimental Film and Video. The "Indie" Gathering Film Festival exists to showcase the independent filmmaker.  Our mission is to inspire and encourage film makers through a competitive showcase. Filmmakers participate in their screenings and after the films speak with audience members who seek a closer look into the creative process.

 

Submissions for The 2012 Indie Gathering are now open, with the regular deadline submissions now May 1st. Go towww.theindiegathering.com for more information, and submit your project to the festival that was voted one of Movie Maker Magazine's Top 25 Film Festival Picks – Best for Networking!

 

At the 2011 festival, we played over 90 films from around the world!

 

The 2012 festival will be held on August 17th, 18th and 19th, and no matter who you are, we have a place for you!
