The NYC Independent Film Festival is a celebration of the true independent filmmaker

The NYC Independent Film Festival will host a variety of events: Panels with industry professionals on topics such as Distribution, Film Finance, Music Licensing, and Women In Film, after parties and networking events, live shows, discussion groups, and a VR experience.

In 2018, the NYC Independent Film Festival will award over $10,000 USD in prizes in 17 categories. The Festival is proud to award prizes from iActing Studios, Epidemic Sound, Final Draft, Inktip, International Screenwriters’ Association, and iPitch.tv.

The Best Short Film and Best Super Short Film will win distribution deals with ShortsTV; as well as a Panasonic AG-DVX200 4K camera for the Best Director. Cash prizes will also be awarded to the “Best Virtual Reality Video”, “Best Short Sketch Comedy”, “Best TV Pilot”, and “Best Web Series”.
