NYC Filmmaker's Festival

Also at the NYC Filmmakers Festival, we strongly believe that film festivals should be a useful outlet for the truly independent, “Indie” filmmaker. And, we further believe that festivals should create a unique environment so that all of you indie filmmakers have an opportunity to actually advance your career, and to become more successful artists.

That's why we not only give out “Awards” to the winning filmmakers, but we also have “prizes” “giveaways” and “scholarships” for you which include a variety of things that you can use in order to benefit your filmmaking endeavors.
