In 2017, the Louisiana legislature passed a law to improve the landscape for Louisiana’s independent filmmakers and content creators with the establishment of the Louisiana Entertainment Development Fund, which could equal up to ~$2.6M annually. This fund aims to support local films, digital media content, and workforce and educational programs designed to build capacity in this sector of the local creative community. How can this money best support YOUR work?

Join the newly-formed coalition, Alliance for Louisiana Filmmakers, for an interactive listening session that will include information about this new multi-million dollar resource + will give you the opportunity to share the unique challenges you face in building a sustainable career in film + digital media. What kinds of grants, loans, educational + professional development programs would help your work + your career the most?

And please spread the word! Share this RSVP link to other Louisiana filmmakers you know who would be interested in attending! Come one, come all! (And tell your friends in Natchitoches, Shreveport, Thibodaux, Houma and Lake Charles that we'll be coming their way!)
