ATTENTION ALL FILMMAKERS: DUE TO THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC, AFMX IS PLANNING TO PRESENT OUR FESTIVAL VIRTUALLY AGAIN IN 2021. IF WE ARE ABLE TO PRESENT IN-PERSON SCREENINGS AND EVENTS BY SEPTEMBER 2021, WE WILL LET EVERYONE KNOW BY THE NOTIFICATION DATE OF FILMS BEING ACCEPTED. THE ENTIRE TEAM AT AFMX IS TAKING EVERY PRECAUTION TO KEEP OUR STAFF, SPONSORS, AND FILMMAKERS SAFE AND HEALTHY BY FOLLOWING ALL CITY, COUNTY AND STATE GUIDELINES. WE HAD OVER 53,000 PEOPLE TUNE IN TO AFMX 2020, AND EXPECT EVEN MORE IN 2021. THANK YOU FOR BEING PART OF THE EXPERIENCE.
The Albuquerque Film & Music Experience (AFMX) has hosted an average of 10,000 attendees each year and presents a fusion of film, music and special events that create a unique and intimate experience for everyone in attendance.
Our Mission:
AFMX brings together award-winning and up-and-coming filmmakers and musicians to showcase and celebrate film and music, and provide a platform for education, collaboration, discovery and the sharing of stories.
Our Vision:
To enhance cultural richness by integrating film and music programs that provide entertainment and education for the community, contribute to the creative economy and support Albuquerque as an epicenter for film, music and the arts.
AFMX is very selective with films that have the highest production quality and value when it comes to cinematography, sound, music, editing, lighting, acting, and all of the other details that go into making a great film. We look forward to reviewing your project, and thank you for submitting.
The Albuquerque Film & Music Experience is presented by the AFME Foundation, a non-profit 501 (c) (3) organization.
