ROCKLAND FILMMAKERS brings filmmakers from Rockland County together for screening, sharing, discussion, and collaboration.
Our goal is to:
- Provide a forum for filmmakers of all levels and all genres
- Promote a long-term dialogue about filmmaking
- Encourage filmmakers in their efforts
- Explore avenues for production, post-production, and distribution
- Advance cross-arts and cross-discipline connections throughout the county
- Engage audiences, community members, and community leader
The focus is on the filmmakers. Not just the film that was finished, but also on the one that isn’t finished yet, and needs to be. Or on the next film, and the next idea, and how to make it into a reality.
The 2011 Rockland Filmmaker programs are made possible in part with funds from the New York State Council on the Arts.
