* NFMLA Monthly Film Festival – NFMLA’s core program is its monthly film festival. Each festival presents screenings of shorts, documentaries and feature films that have been submitted from all over the world. All of the programs are followed by a Q&A with each filmmaker. The program also offers a special reception so the audience can meet the filmmakers and incredible talent involved, while also networking with industry professionals.
* InFocus Series – NFMLA’s InFocus diversity initiative seeks to combat the lack of diversity in the film industry by giving underrepresented groups of filmmakers (i.e. race, gender, sexual identity, region and socioeconomic background) the opportunity to showcase their work on a large, public platform during our monthly festival.
* DocuSlate – The program dedicates an entire day of programming focused on documentary filmmaking that represents new stories and unique voices from around the globe.
* Best of NFMLA Awards – Each year, NFMLA presents awards for the best films shown in the previous year’s NFMLA Monthly Film Festivals at an exclusive gala event.
* Stage 5 (On-Camera Interview Series) – All filmmakers featured in each NFMLA Monthly Film Festival are invited to participate in on-camera interviews published by MovieMaker Magazine.
* NewFilmmakers Los Angeles (NFMLA) Interview Series – An ongoing program that hosts virtual discussions with accomplished film and television professionals. These candid conversations provide resources and insight to those who want to evolve their craft and advance their career in the entertainment industry.
* Special Events, Programs, and CineSessions – Year round, NFMLA partners with universities, high schools, studios, guilds, government entities and others to host a wide variety of educational programs, mentorship and special opportunities for emerging storytellers and aspiring film professionals.
