SUMMARY:Building Connections
DESCRIPTION:Film Fatales members gathered for a virtual social mixer with feature film and episodic television directors around the world. We had a community discussion around inclusive language\, authentic authorship and ethical filmmaking practices as we continue to work towards decolonizing the film industry. We stand in solidarity against systemic racism and gender-based violence as we make space to listen to each other and build deeper connections within our community.  \nWe began with a grounding ritual and group conversation led by co-hosts Dewi Marquis (Ara Untamed)\, Chelsea Hernandez (Building The American Dream) Donna Wheeler (Death of a Saleswoman)\, and Rijaa Nadeem (Scandal Made me Famous)\, before dividing up into smaller discussion circles to deepen our relationships based on a series of guided prompts.

SUMMARY:Consider This Members
DESCRIPTION:Thank you for joining Film Fatales for an online discussion about how to launch a successful awards campaign with limited resources. \nWe heard from filmmakers who have produced feature films that have been nominated for Spirit Awards\, Gotham Awards\, and Academy Awards. Panelists included producers Elizabeth Woodward (SXSW winning Another Body)\, and Nikkia Moulterie (Gotham and Spirit nominated Nanny). Moderated by Film Fatales member Liz Sargent (Take Me Home). \nAwards matter in raising the visibility of films for a mainstream audience\, introducing new cultural perspectives\, and elevating films seeking distribution. In the past 95 years\, only three women have won an Oscar for Best Director and only seven have been nominated. As Variety recently reported\, “Every year\, the race for the Oscar gets more expensive and less inclusive.” Campaigns for Spirit Awards and Gotham Awards are similarly challenging. Filmmakers must figure out how to independently cover their marketing costs and get their films seen by voters and audiences alike. We learned the nuts and bolts of what it takes to run an independent awards campaign in this round table conversation. \nWith support from event partners Pano Network\, The Gotham\, and NYWIFT.

SUMMARY:Consider This
DESCRIPTION:Thank you for joining Film Fatales for an online discussion about how to launch a successful awards campaign with limited resources. \nWe heard from filmmakers who have produced feature films that have been nominated for Spirit Awards\, Gotham Awards\, and Academy Awards. Panelists included producers Elizabeth Woodward (SXSW winning Another Body)\, and Nikkia Moulterie (Gotham and Spirit nominated Nanny). Moderated by Film Fatales member Liz Sargent (Take Me Home). \nAwards matter in raising the visibility of films for a mainstream audience\, introducing new cultural perspectives\, and elevating films seeking distribution. In the past 95 years\, only three women have won an Oscar for Best Director and only seven have been nominated. As Variety recently reported\, “Every year\, the race for the Oscar gets more expensive and less inclusive.” Campaigns for Spirit Awards and Gotham Awards are similarly challenging. Filmmakers must figure out how to independently cover their marketing costs and get their films seen by voters and audiences alike. We learned the nuts and bolts of what it takes to run an independent awards campaign in this round table conversation. \nWith support from event partners Pano Network\, The Gotham\, and NYWIFT.

SUMMARY:Fatales Forward Showcase Members
DESCRIPTION:Thanks for joining Film Fatales for an online showcase with the fellows from the Fatales Forward mentorship program: Brit Fryer\, Raven Two Feathers\, Rey Tang\, Silvia Del Carmen Castaños\, and Ryan Rox. Moderated by Nava Mau. \nWith support from the NEA\, Fatales Forward is an innovative fellowship for emerging filmmakers working on their debut or sophomore feature films about the trans experience. The program consists of three months of one-on-one mentorship with established trans filmmakers\, a virtual Career Advancement Intensive\, creative peer to peer workshops\, and ongoing artist development support. \nThe Fatales Forward Fellowship was launched when trans visibility in the media was at an all time high and representation behind the camera was almost non-existent. As we all know\, the situation is even more dire today. We need to move beyond visibility towards true acceptance and celebration. That journey begins with authentic authorship and trans and nonbinary creators telling our own stories. We hope to create pockets of joy and creativity through our work together and look forward to celebrating this year’s fellows as they move boldly forward into the future.
