KCC has sixteen primary webpages and on this webpage, the goal is to help all businesses and persons interested in or overlapping with the cinematography industry, to be networked together as there is no other singular webpage attempting to link hundreds of local, regional, national, and international resources all in one place.

Our other webpage has upcoming KCC events as well as non-KCC events. We strive to list all cinematography events such as casting calls; premiers; film festivals; job opportunities; etc., to keep the community informed of such events. We welcome you submitting information as it can be a challenge to seek out all of these details.

There are links for film festivals and those folks place a greater emphasis on their specializations than what will be attempted herein. Please view the links to those companies (below). Please see our disclaimer at the bottom of the page.

USE CONTROL "F" TO "FIND" WHAT YOU SEEK BELOW AS THERE ARE LITERALLY HUNDREDS OF LINKS BELOW FOR A WIDE VARIETY OF TOPICS!

in Franklin Indiana

Partnering With The B Movie Celebration / The Indy Film Co-op

About TromaDance

TromaDance is the first film festival wholeheartedly devoted to filmmakers and fans. Unlike every other film festival, TromaDance does not charge filmmakers to submit their films. Entrance to all screenings is free and open to the public. Also, there are no VIP reservations or preferential treatment regarding films, panels, or parties of any kind given. The organizers of TromaDance believe films are meant to be seen, especially when it comes to new filmmakers Art in all its forms is for the people!

TromaDance features a range of films made independently, usually without big stars, big money and far removed from the Hollywood studio system. The official selections of TromaDance have been made with nothing more than passion, courage, integrity, and raw talent.

For The People and By The People

Everyone at TromaDance is treated as an equal. The elite and the celebrated are treated no better or worse than the experimental filmmaker or the random moviegoer off the street. Admittance to all screenings, panels, parties, and events is strictly on a first come, first served basis. If there are any VIPs at TromaDance, they are the filmmakers whose blood, sweat, and hard work are on the screen. TromaDance is an opportunity for everyone who.s ever picked up a camera to have their work seen without the compromises required by elitist cartel interference. TromaDance is proud to be the first and only film festival of the people, for the people, and by the people. http://www.tromadance.com

FORECASTLE FESTIVAL

What is The Forecastle Festival?

The Forecastle Festival is the largest gathering of musicians, artists, and activists in the American Midwest. Founded in Louisville, KY, the scenic, outdoor event is equally based upon a three-part format: Music.Art.Activism. Combining the hardest working Midwest bands, artists, and progressive environmental organizations ~ Forecastle is the place where the people come together.

What is the goal of Forecastle?

The goal of Forecastle is to establish a new festival model in the United States. While similar in comparison to California's music/art, desert phenomenon Coachella, Forecastle goes a step further by offering activists equal representation. The result is three cultural mediums ~ music.art.activism ~ equally showcased in a scenic, outdoor environment.

What inspires Forecastle?

It's a cause worth fighting for, as it carries the promise of establishing an activism-centered festival model in the mainstream of America. There's a sense of purpose, will, duty, and renewed urgency given the state of world affairs. Inspiration is equally drawn from a great deal of young people who have volunteered their hearts and minds to this noble cause, and seek only to better themselves through independent music, emerging artists, and a progressive environmental agenda.

~ Capt. JK McKnight (festival founder)

Kentucky Green Team Film Festival

The Kentucky Green Team Online Film Festival is a new initiative designed to highlight sustainable environmental practices. During the summer of 2008, First Lady Jane Beshear asked Green Team members to send in their suggestions on how we can inspire, teach, and encourage others to take steps to improve our world.s environment. She was especially interested in ideas to involve the youngest generation of Kentuckians, who will inherit these problems if they are not addressed today. The winning submission, to host an online film festival in which Kentuckians could submit a film educating the public on energy conservation, was inspired by Syandene Evans, a freshman at Henry Clay High School in Lexington.

There are three categories for submissions:

Thirty-second public service announcement that encourages Kentuckians to reduce their energy consumption.

Short film (ten minutes or less in length) that highlights environmentally friendly, energy-saving actions that anyone can and should perform.

Short film (ten minutes or less in length) that presents an invention, new device, or new idea that would help reduce energy consumption in Kentucky.

FILM FESTIVALS AROUND KENTUCKIANA & THE WORLD

You can Submit your films via:
"Without A Box" Independent Movie Makers' Network

"Without A Box" DEMO

Many film festivals do not use this service, however, if you are wanting to see out thousands of potential festivals that might accept your film to show in their festival, "Without A Box" is a great option for you to locate festivals. They also list a variety of ways to search for festivals and that can help you decide on how many or how much to spend when submiting films. As each festival is different and has unique rules, the benefit of "Without A Box" is that you only fill in your data once for each movie and then the data can be conveyed to all of the various festivals without you duplicating the media kits, production information, etc.
