"Through constant experimentation and creative freedom, indie films allow for the emergence of new methods and trends in #filmmaking. They offer an authentic reflection of the human condition, providing a mirror to society that reveals our shared struggles, joys, and complexities. Indie films matter because they push the boundaries of what cinema can be, creating stories that resonate on a deeply #human level. They are a testament to the power of #storytelling and a crucial part of the #cinematic landscape, offering a diversity of voices and perspectives that enrich our understanding of the world." 🎥 🎥 🎥 [sic] Aditya, Dandy C.

Worried about the authenticity of your charity film? At The Saltways, we ensure that we capture your story authentically and organically. One of the ways we do this is to not use using slow motion. Less production. More truth. We also embrace the unexpected, which allows the raw truth to emerge, taking the pressure off of you and leading to a more enaging film.

Over the last 6 years, our film challenge has advanced the careers of hundreds of women and non-binary filmmakers. We give filmmakers the opportunity to collaborate with a new network, access the best equipment, produce high-end material, gain credits, and get into festivals. In other words, we remove the financial barriers so that women and nonbinary filmmakers can focus on telling their stories and advancing their careers. It has never been easy to make this film challenge free for participants. It takes months of planning, resource gathering, volunteer training, and more. Now more than ever, we need community support to make this film challenge happen. Diversity, equity, and inclusion programs are under siege. There are lawsuits targeting these initiatives; companies are worried about sponsoring these programs; and entire DEI departments and budgets are getting cut. In a post-strike world, everyone is tightening their budgets, and equity is not making the cut. We are not going to let Hollywood backslide. Equity is not a trend; our lives depend on it. Already, Western Digital, Cinelease, and The Tremaine Foundation lent their support to the film challenge, but we need to raise $20,000 this week in order to continue our rollout. We are committed to hosting our film challenge this October, which means our applications are set to open at the end of July. In just a few short weeks, we will need to know that our funding is secure so that we can bring this program to our community. Whether you’re a past participant who wants this opportunity to be accessible to future participants or you simply believe in this mission, now is the time to make a donation. Will you be a part of this movement? Please make a tax-deductible donation today! https://lnkd.in/e7Tm5G-Y

LBL Charitable Foundation Limited will be producing a feature film, ASSUMPTION in 2025 and preparing this project in 2024. Script Review - ASSUMPTION Reviewer 2: Steven Fernandez - Thank You, Steven! Steven, a highly experience filmmaker kindly provided me some feedback on my script. Quote: “The strongest aspect of this script is its theme: That assumptions made too quickly can cause much harm - often to the innocent or disempowered. This is a message that needs to be told to the world. There remains serious improvement work needed, however, for the version of the script I have read [December 2023]. Particularly in the areas of dialogue and story structure. Especially in the first third of the script. The middle third, however, has some compelling moments”

Central Florida Locals: ENZIAN NEEDS YOUR HELP! If you're a local to the Orlando area, you likely know and love Enzian Theater; I've enjoyed it so much during my years here that I had to get involved, so I joined the Advisory Council. And we've been hit hard. As you may have seen in recent news, the state of Florida has made a monumental and unprecedented cut of $32 million in funding for arts and cultural institutions. This means that beginning July 1, state arts funding supporting Enzian and other arts nonprofits will be zero. As a nonprofit organization, Enzian’s continued operation relies on government support and grant funding. With this elimination of state funds, Enzian will experience a total loss of $104,191. For almost 40 years, Enzian has been Central Florida’s home to independent cinema. More than a movie theater, it is a curated celebration of film, showcasing and prioritizing cinema of historical and cultural significance to entertain, inspire, educate, and connect the community through film. Now more than ever, your support is essential in sustaining Enzian’s future. Please consider a gift to help bridge this funding gap and keep cinema in Central Florida alive and accessible to all. Here’s how you can help today: 1.    Make a Donation Only 25% of Enzian’s operating income is derived from ticket sales. Make a donation today and your generosity will directly support our mission!  2.    Join the Enzian Film Society With an Enzian membership, you can receive exclusive presales, ticket discounts, table reservations, and other amazing perks. 3.    Become a Sponsor Enzian could not bring the community together at our numerous screenings, festivals, and special events without the generous support of corporate sponsors. https://lnkd.in/eurNqYY7
