Brownfish Short FIilm Festival NYC (BSFFNYC)

 

From page to production, from production to profession, the Brownfish Short Film Festival NYC is dedicated to helping filmmakers and screenwriters get their work exhibited and grow their career paths.

 

 

Along with film screenings and screenplay readings, the BSFFNYC presents seminars and workshops with industry professionals to provide emerging filmmakers and screenwriters with the information and business advice needed to take their careers to the next level.

This is a judged contest awarding cash and prizes. We believe the greatest support given to filmmakers and screenwriters is the incentive to make more films.
