Film Festivals & Events

We sponsor and attend (during non-pandemics) film festivals, conferences, and industry events all over the country (with the occasional trek overseas) to support independent filmmakers, promote SAG-AFTRA low-budget projects, and host special events. Scroll down to see if we’ll be heading to your town soon. Don’t be afraid to say hi (…or buy us a drink)!

Schedule and attendance subject to change.
