The Mission of the North Carolina Film Awards is to strengthen the independent film, television and video industry.  The NCFA shall identify and recognize an array of talented filmmakers and their movies from across the state, region and nation.

The North Carolina Film Awards draws motion pictures and talent from around the world to North Carolina, one of the top movie and television producers in the United States.  Our awards will identify the top achievers in their category. Every producer and director hopes to create an award winning movie.  To a worthy cadre of independent industry craftsman, It is our honor to bring these hopes to fruition. 
 
As the gentle chill of fall roll over the hills of the North Carolina piedmont, Raleigh is nestled in the shadows of autumn.  The scent of fallen apples, old footballs and the brown of harvested fields lay under the red light of September and October.  With summer's best of weather and autumn's best of cheer, welcome to the North Carolina Film Awards.
