                             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 i …

Workshops and meetups on Learning how to be an assistant director music Videos and Film lead by Dwayne B Perryman

About a year ago, I began purchasing equipment to develop video content. It started out with a camera, then another, then microphones, then Final Cut, then Motion, then a green screen, then lighting, and so forth.

The …

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 …
