We're a Sacramento area group with passion and desire to make films. The group is for California filmmakers of all kinds: directors, editors, producers, actors, audio and lightning professionals, composers, and others involved in making films, commercials, or videos in greater Sacramento and the surrounding areas.

Our monthly meetups provide a unique opportunity to listen and ask questions of knowledgeable experts in the field, share experiences, practice pitching project ideas, and interact with filmmakers—both veterans and novices. Soon, those interested will branch out beyond monthly meet ups and start working on small projects to gain hands-on experience in the craft.

Join this group to meet other area professionals and aspiring filmmakers, network with them, keep informed about what is going on and trends in the industry, and help each other realize the dream. The group is open to those interested in making films of any experience level.
