SUBMISSIONS OPEN YEAR-ROUND

Rules and Terms

Are you an independent filmmaker ready and willing to invest in your own career? Do you want to showcase and/or test your content in front of a live audience? Looking to network and meet more filmmakers? Then you have found the right family!

​

The Independent Cinema Showcase (ICS) has made it possible for a community of filmmakers to share their visions at the Regal Cinema Theatres at the L.A. LIVE Convention Center in Downtown Los Angeles. Each filmmaker pays for their “screening/air time”, ranging from $35 to $85 depending on the length of the film, in order to fairly split the venue expense.

​

The ICS family provides an open mezzanine area where filmmakers can display and promote their marketing materials as well network with other independent artists. There will be a photographer and videographer capturing the event.

​

Please plan to provide the following:

1) Signed Agreement

2) DCP file with our sponsor Simple DCP

3) Film information and promotional materials (a downloadable link to your film – under 2GB – movie stills, behind the scenes photos and film details)

4) Payment for “screening/air time”

Awards & Prizes

Each filmmaker will receive a distribution opportunity with an award-winning online streaming platform called OPPRIME.tv, where the filmmakers can host and monetize their content. There will be three winners at each showcase with an "Honorable Mention" that includes a personalized trophy.

​

The showcase also includes special raffle prizes for all guests who attend and make a donation/contribution to ICS at the door. Previous prizes have included signed movie posters, comedy show tickets, coffee gift cards, sweet treats and discount packages (LiteGear, Quixote Studios, InkTip & Peet's Coffee).
