All month long, we’re putting a spotlight on worthy organizations that need your help. Give back! Feel good about yourself! Get a tax deduction! Up today is Film Independent, a Hollywood Institution that has nurtured and supported independent filmmakers and shown their works since 1981.

From FilmIndependent.org: “At Film Independent our mission is to champion the cause of independent film and support a community of artists who embody diversity, innovation and uniqueness of vision.”

Film Independent helps filmmakers make their movies, builds an audience for their projects and works to diversify the film industry. They produce the Spirit Awards, the annual celebration honoring artist-driven films and recognizing the finest achievements of American independent filmmakers.  Film Independent also produces the Los Angeles Film Festival, showcasing the best of American and international cinema and the Film Independent at LACMA Film Series, a year-round, weekly program that offers unique cinematic experiences for the Los Angeles creative community and the general public.

With over 250 annual screenings and events, Film Independent provides access to a network of like-minded artists who are driving creativity in the film industry. Film Independent’s Artist Development program offers free Labs for selected writers, directors, producers and documentary filmmakers and presents year-round networking opportunities.  Project Involve is Film Independent’s signature program dedicated to fostering the careers of talented filmmakers from communities traditionally underrepresented in the film industry.
