Artist Connection NYC Mixer

NYC Filmmaker Mixer

Fri. May 29th, 5:00pm - 8:00pm ET

Join Film Fatales members for an in-person cocktail gathering on Friday, May 29th in New York to prepare for some good vibes as we head into summer. Where better to celebrate cinema than at the Museum of the Moving Image? This year we are extending an invitation to our community of filmmaker, film lovers, and partner filmmaker groups, as we uplift each other with like-minded folks interested in amplifying underrepresented voices in the industry… and have some fun in the process! Our spring time theme is Let’s Get Loud! From stripes to florals to funky designs - come rocking your favorite patterns or color combos. There will be a cash bar with discounted beer, wine, cocktails, non-alcoholic drinks, and snacks. We will be making a toast and taking a group photo around 7pm. Joined by members of A-Doc, AWFC, AWD, BFS, BGDM, DPA, ICF+C, NYWIFT, WIP, and WMM, with support from ShotDeck and Zeiss, this in person mixer is for everyone interested in amplifying filmmakers of all marginalized genders. Film Fatales members can log in for their member ticket. Accessibility Notes: The venue is fully ADA accessible. Please contact us for an accommodation.

Changing The Ratio Emmys

Awards Season Cocktail Reception

Thursday June 18th 7pm-10pm 2026

Join us for an in-person cocktail reception in Hollywood as we celebrate with like-minded folks interested in amplifying underrepresented voices during Emmy Awards season. We’ll have 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 ShotDeck and The Hollywood Commission. Changing 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. With 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.
