The MODEx XR, TV and Film Festival is an immersive festival experience – combining our love of film, TV, and virtual programming to celebrate the visual arts and create an incredible experience for filmmakers around the globe. This Film Festival is dedicated to showcasing diverse, emerging talent with a passion for filmmaking looking to showcase their work in an immersive, unique setting.

All selections will screen on a featured curved 60'X13' screen with VR capabilities along with select media on 6 digital signage walls.

In addition to film screenings our festival will host panels featuring the filmmaker(s), workshops, networking opportunities, and engaging panels curated for filmmaking and creative communities. Our mission is to provide the exclusive MODEx experience to filmmakers eager to share their work in front of the Atlanta community.

Our film categories span a wide range featuring both feature and short films of various genres, Animation/XR, and TV; including documentaries, fiction and music videos.

In addition to the film festival, MODEx Studio hosts monthly screenings, a Filmmakers Program, a TV show, Podcast, etc.
