Entry is FREE but if accepted we simply ask you to purchase a ticket - and don't forget to invite your cast, crew, friends and family. We hold several screening events EVERY MONTH in the heart of Los Angeles, in our state of the art cinema space. Short films are submitted through FilmFreeway. At each event filmmakers introduce their film, discuss their work with other creatives, have Q&As after each screening, getting immediate and essential feedback while networking in the theatre patio afterwards. If you're interested in the filmmaking process, want to develop community and broaden your networking then you should join us.
If you attend your screening you will receive an OFFICIAL SELECTION CERTIFICATE, an OFFICIAL LAUREL and there will be red carpet photo ops available. We do not give out awards or judge films beyond this selection process.

With access to industry professionals and up and coming filmmakers it's the perfect place to develop and learn as a filmmaker.

These are essentially OPEN MIC Q&A screenings. What we do is give filmmakers the chance to talk about their work in our venue, to an audience of their peers and like-minded filmmakers, have a Q&A after the screening and have photo ops with cast, crew and friends to celebrate their achievement.
After the screenings both filmmakers and our special guests mingle in the theater's patio. It's a space where filmmakers can talk about their work, get critical and essential feedback from like-minded creatives, while networking and establishing future artistic and career connections.
