Brooklyn Filmmakers Collective Information

THE BROOKLYN FILMMAKERS COLLECTIVE IS A SUPPORTIVE COMMUNITY OF 50+ FILMMAKERS WHO COME TOGETHER FOR WEEKLY PEER WORKSHOPS. Our goal is to create a collaborative filmmaking community that supports and encourages each member to make groundbreaking work. We meet once a week for three hours to workshop projects in various stages from development to final cut and beyond. Central to the collective is fostering a generous community that shares knowledge, skills, and connections. We are a consensus-based group that values equitable interactions and diverse voices. Collectively, we have produced work that has screened at the Sundance Film Festival, SXSW, Tribeca, Slamdance Film Festival, A&E, PBS, HBO, IFC, Discovery Channel, National Geographic, MTV, France 3, The Smithsonian, and Al Jazeera. Our members have received awards from Sundance, the Independent Spirit Awards, Student Academy Awards, Gotham Awards, and their work has been nominated for the National Academy Awards.
