The American Film Awards® Brand and its platforms are focused on creating diverse opportunities and jobs for the marginalized and disenfranchised population among Hollywood’s creative talent and for those in the recognized mainstream. "I believe that all over the world you'll find incredible filmmakers that have never been discovered. Sometimes great films are ignored but with our platform, we give writers, actors, directors and producers a chance to be seen, mentored and employed as we
celebrate the best films of the year." Why are we different? Its simple. We built this platform to give opportunities to up and coming filmmakers, namely actors, writers, directors and producers who need a chance to make, show and monetize their work in Hollywood. We do this everyday by connecting with you on all social networks and events, but once a year, we get together and celebrate the best films of the year. The real work begins after every Awards gala, that's our signature.
