SUMMARY:From Script to Screen
DESCRIPTION:Film Fatales hosted a panel discussion and reception during the Sundance Film Festival. \nWe discovered groundbreaking works of independent cinema in this panel highlighting visionary filmmakers who directed feature films premiering at Sundance including Josephine Decker (Chasing Summer)\, Liz Sargent (Take Me Home)\, and NB Mager (Run Amok). Moderated by Imani Davis (American Cinematheque).  \nPresented by United Airlines with support from IMDbPro and the Utah Film Commission. \nAt a time when funding for the arts is drying up\, we learned from Film Fatales members with Sundance premieres about how they got their films funded and made. How helpful are proof of concepts? What types of institutional support or corporate sponsorships are available? What is the path forward in the current economic climate? The panel covered evolving techniques in storytelling\, the importance of diverse perspectives\, and how these iconic filmmakers are pushing the boundaries of cinema on screen and off.

SUMMARY:Day of Caring Members
DESCRIPTION:Currently\, 1 in 5 people in Los Angeles experience hunger. Film Fatales and the Los Angeles Regional Food Bank joined in the fight against hunger in our local communities. We helped assemble food packages for children\, families\, and seniors across Los Angeles County. The food packages consist of shelf-stable food items such as grains\, canned fruits and vegetables\, and protein. Together\, we sorted and packed produce for over 29\,000 people who face food insecurity in Los Angeles\, and we got to know each other better in the process.

SUMMARY:Changing the Ratio Oscars
DESCRIPTION:Film Fatales hosted an in-person cocktail reception in Los Angeles as we celebrate with like-minded folks interested in amplifying underrepresented voices during awards season. There was a panel discussion with Gotham award winning filmmaker Vera Drew and Academy Award nominated composer Laura Karpman\, followed by a reception celebrating creators of all marginalized genders. With some light bites\, great music\, and plenty of good cheer to go around. Co-hosted by the AWFC\, Film Fatales\, ReFrame and WIF. Sponsored by Paramount+. \nChanging the Ratio is a cross disciplinary networking event for industry professionals celebrating women\, trans and/or nonbinary filmmakers during awards season. Our focus is to shine a light on some of the amazing projects and their creators from this year as we come together for a night of industry conversation and networking with professional filmmakers\, crew\, and influential industry decision-makers. \nFilm Fatales recently launched the Parity Pipeilne\, a results-driven initiative that fights inequities in the film industry by connecting underrepresented filmmakers directly with key decision-makers seeking to hire equitably and program inclusively. \nReFrame is getting ready to release its WHAT TO WATCH: 2026 Film FYC Guide. As part of WIF’s mission to advocate for change\, the Voter Guide aims to amplify the work of deserving women\, trans\, and nonbinary folk\, serving as a go-to resource for industry voters who are conscious of gender bias and desire equity in the industry. \nWith the current underrepresentation of women and non-binary creatives across technical and craft categories – from directors to composers\, cinematographers\, VFX and editors – our collective goal with this event is to carve out and occupy shared space. As film award  season is underway\, this event will highlight members across our organizations who have the potential to be nominated and considered for awards.

SUMMARY:Changing The Ratio Emmys Members
DESCRIPTION:We had a blast at our in-person cocktail reception in Hollywood celebrating all the Film Fatales members nominated for Emmy Awards this year! There were some light bites\, great music\, and plenty of good cheer to go around. Co-hosted by AWFC\, Film Fatales\, ReFrame and WIF with support from Scriptation. \nChanging the Ratio is a cross-disciplinary networking event for industry professionals celebrating women and gender expansive filmmakers and below-the-line crew. As the Emmys are approaching\, our focus is to shine a light on some of the amazing projects and their creators from this year as we come together for a night of industry conversation and networking with professional filmmakers\, crew\, and influential industry decision-makers. \nWith the current under-representation of women and non-binary creatives across technical and craft categories – from directors to composers\, cinematographers\, VFX\, and editors – our collective goal with this event is to carve out and occupy shared space. As film award season is underway\, this event will highlight members across our organizations who have the potential to be nominated and considered for awards.
