Filmmaker Programming

The SFFILM Makers team hosts dozens of events throughout the year designed specifically for the Bay Area’s independent filmmaking community. These include filmmaker panels, work-in-progress screenings, live script readings, pitch workshops, networking mixers, and more. Guest speakers from across the country are frequently invited to share their expertise—recent events have covered topics such as fundraising, navigating the distribution landscape, making the switch from documentaries to fiction films, engaging film journalists, and the pros and cons of crowdsourcing, among many others. Filmmaker programming takes place at FilmHouse, SFFILM’s vibrant creative hub and residency space for local filmmakers.

Want to get involved and attend filmmaker events? Get added to the invite list by signing up for any level of SFFILM membership and selecting the Filmmaker Add-On. All members with the Filmmaker Add-On have access to filmmaker events at FilmHouse.

New events are being added to the schedule all the time—watch this space for the latest news on what’s coming up!

There are no upcoming events at this time.
