Philadelphia Independent Film Festival 2010 up and running!

Hello all,
Well the grand scheme has been thwarted and we are now moving along just fine! We have many things going on and are well underway for 2010. The people have spoken. The founders have returned.

The Festival will be held June 24-28, 2010. Media Bureau, 725 N. 4th Street, will be the Box Office as it was for the inauguration year (2008). The late night screening room will be open for the truly daring. Film slams have risen again!

All films / events will be returning to Northern Liberties. The walking festival is back on...

We have spent the better part of the last 15 months debating openly the goals of our festival, seeking out like minded film types, expanding the link between local and non local film makers, and are having fun again watching the movies! If you are interested in checking out some of the screener's as audience reviewers and take yourself serious (!), please contact us at: http://PhiladelphiaIndependentFilmFestival.com or call (USA) 215 592 - 1242

... WAB submission process will begin Nov. 21st
... Walk-ins have already begun.

We are screening Monday and Wednesday evenings here in the freeRADlab. Please let us know if you are interested. The discussions have been lively. Contact us for more information or stop by - 9pm - 12am.

I want to thank everybody, especially all the film makers, City of Philadelphia, and the Northern Liberties community who have supported this festival and been there through the big changes over the past year. It has been quite an experience!

If you have any questions or comments, please call or stop by. Or just post it here - for all to see :)


See you soon,

Blog is now inactive... for now. ;)

Hello,
As the founder and original Festival Director at the Philadelphia Independent Film Festival (2008) I want to thank all of the Film Makers, everybody who participated, and all who gave their time. When I conceived the idea and wrote the mantra as to why this festival was starting up and what it hoped to do, it was a sincere attempt at connecting to the heart of the film world - the Independent Film Maker.

Best of luck to the new Festival Directors and the 2009 team. I'll be back ;)
