Unique Film Opportunities











G.I. Film Festival

GIFF is a great new opportunity that offers veterans a chance to share their stories. By submitting to this festival or sharing it, new voices will be heard. GIFF will be held in Washington D.C. in April, 2017. GIFF is also currently offering sponsorship opportunities.

"The GIFF presents films from new and established international and domestic filmmakers that honor the heroic stories of the American Armed Forces and the worldwide struggle for freedom and liberty.  Some of the films screened are voted on by fans.  Others are screened for the first time.  All will in some way express the courage and selflessness of our fighting men and women and the value of their work."








Asian World Film Festival

Asian World Film Festival is a festival that encourages Asian voices in film. This festival gathers many films from around the world and gives light to voices that might have never had the chance to be heard. AWFF is held in Culver City, California.

"The Asian World Film Festival (AWFF) brings the best of a broad selection of Asian World cinema to Los Angeles in order to draw greater recognition to the region's wealth of filmmakers, strengthening ties between the Asian and Hollywood film industries. Uniting through cross-cultural collaboration, our festival champions films from 50 countries across Asia spanning from Turkey to Japan and Russia to India."


Brothers at War Resiliency

 Brothers at War is a documentary about veteran's stories. The film sheds light on many issues and real stories that share insight. Brothers at War Resiliency Program was born from the film—it is a way to help deal with many issues veterans might face.


 "The BROTHERS AT WAR RESILIENCY PROGRAM integrates multimedia, journaling, live instruction and group participation to create discoveries, break down barriers between family members, and invigorate the reintegration process for Service Members and their families. The workshop gives Soldiers and their families new insights and strategies, which can be integrated into their daily lives. Surveys of these groups have a favorability rating of 4.8 out of a possible 5.0 for the film, the instructor, and the process."

American Red Cross: Santa Barbara

       A day trip to Santa Barbara's Red Cross made me realize and understand the involvement of Red Cross members and volunteers.                    Jessica Piffero is the head communications leader of Red Cross for the Central Valley. She explained to me the joy of being a part of Red Cross and giving back. By volunteering for the Red Cross, you can simply meet other people, understand non-profits better, and realize more ways to give back to your community.         We had a great opportunity to interview Maureen White, a volunteer during World War II. Maureen gave us some insight from her volunteer experience. Since it is Red Cross's 100th anniversary, it is special to me that I got to be a part of commemorating the service by creating a video that exemplifies Red Cross's goal.

Philosophy, Astronomy, and Dance

           Heaven's Gift and Gallery: a home for philosophers, artists, astronomers, and psychedelic dancers. When I first walked into the store, I took my time looking at all the lights and all the art. He told me a story about how he used to live in London and how his dreams were much like mine. By first meeting him, I had already sensed his interest in art and space. He sells art and lights that make you wonder and think about things you do, rather than do things without thinking. The lights are trippy, the store is trippy. When I first walked in, I had to look at every individual item one at a time. Once in awhile, he would walk by me and tell me more about what I was looking at which I enjoyed. Here is a video I made. https://youtu.be/pCc8MMF8IsE *Down below, I linked an article by Ron Camacho, further engaging in Amir Sade's story for Heaven's.  Heavens: understanding the universe through art Posted by:  Ron...
