Members receive premiere invitations to all Film Fatales events. This includes in-person events such as panels and mixers at Sundance, SXSW, Tribeca and TIFF as well as a monthly webinar series of educational workshops, master classes, and industry panel discussions.
Members are invited to self-complete an individual profile page on the Film Fatales website. This searchable directory is used by industry allies and other members to hire directors and other crew.
Our monthly keeps filmmakers up-to-date on the latest events, grants, labs, incubators, and film festival deadlines. Pro members also receive the Parity Pipeline Newsletter full of exclusive submission discounts. Past filmmakers have saved literally thousands of dollars in submissions thanks to our discounts.
All members are invited to the private Film Fatales network to connect with other members and continue to build community. Who knows, you may find your next collaborator.
Pro members are eligible for direct Film Fatales recommendations for grants, labs, screenings, and more. Depending on the opportunity, we may even connect you directly with the key decision maker. Thanks to our recommendations, scores of members have been hired for directing jobs, received grants, and had their films screen worldwide.
When Pro members release a film, they receive complimentary promotion in our newsletter and on our social media platforms. With a social reach of 100K+ and a newsletter reach of 10K+, we help our members’ films get seen.
Pro members gain access to a variety of exclusive discounts, including for IMDbPro, production equipment, industry software and more.
Pro members can add one complimentary project to the Parity Pipeline, a searchable database of projects in all stages of development that industry professionals use to find projects to fund, screen, and distribute.
For accessible rates, we offer all members hands-on consultations to offer advice and put together strategic plans in any phase of production, including: creative feedback on screenplays or pitch materials; business consultations as you move into production; and strategic film festival and distribution advice.
