Greater Philadelphia Filmmakers

Greater Philadelphia Filmmakers, established in 2001, is a natural extension of work that the Film Office has fostered for years. In addition to attracting production to the region for the purpose of economic development, the Film Office is committed to nurturing the local industry in every way possible.

‘Filmmakers’ is designed to meet the needs of local media artists and technicians with seminars, business and technical training to help aspiring and experienced film professionals:

  • Improve overall skills
  • Build networks and working relationships
  • Access jobs and production information on our hotline
  • Learn about internship programs
  • Acquire health insurance
  • Participate in and benefit from community outreach
  • Stay abreast of technology updates
  • Receive screening notices

In short, ‘Filmmakers’ creates an environment that inspires and encourages ongoing dialogue and activities to survey and meet the needs of the local film & video community.
