New York, NY (June 1 2015) - A Call for Entries has been officially announced for the 5th Annual Winter Film Awards (WFA) Independent Film Festival, a celebration of independent film to be held February 24-27 2016 in New York City.

Back in 2010, the KahBang Film Festival featured the Maine Premeire of the Maynard James Keenan documentary "Blood Into Wine" to rave reviews, and with that, the KahBang Film in competition category "Music Docs" was born. KahBang has always strived to discover up and coming talent in both music and film, so what better way to celebrate that notion than showcase the undeniably fascinating stories of our favorite musical groups on the silver screen. 2011 has already seen a ver...
The KahBang Film Festival is one portion of the
KahBang Music-Art-Film Festival, happening this August 5th - 13th 2011,
in downtown Bangor, Maine. KahBang is not just another festival. It is a
brand. A brand built around discovering "the next big thing" in the
arts and entertainment worlds.
The KahBang Film Festival is 9 days of films that we think are cool.
Some are cool for different reasons, others are cool for the same
reasons, while still others are both at the same time. If it makes us
laugh, if it makes us think, if someone blackmailed us to screen it, we
share it with you. If you don't like it, we'll give you a refund (please
note: The KahBang Festival does not offer refunds).
At the end of the day, we love films, we love filmmakers with vision,
and we love Milk Duds. Our festival pays tribute to the iconic artists,
the emerging auteur and even the epic fail. We hope you will join us
this August and discover "cool" the way it was meant to be enjoyed.

MISSION & OBJECTIVE

The West Virginia FIlmmakers Festival is the original Film Festival dedicated to films by and for West Virginia. Held every fall in beautiful Sutton, West Virginia, the festival has showcased the best and brightest filmmakers from the Mountain State, and beyond. The First Festival was held in the spring of 2001 showcasing some of West Virginia's best filmmakers at the Landmark Studio for the Arts in Historic Sutton, West Virgina. In 2010 The West Virginia Filmmaker's Guild took over production of the festival.
The WVFF focuses on creating a communal atmosphere between the makers, students, and audiences of their films. We make our filmmakers our top priority by encouraging feedback, networking and workshops among the filmmakers. Filmmakers should leave our weekend with a myriad of new friends and collaborators
Cash prizes are given in the categories of: Best Student Film, Best Narrative Short, Best Experimental/Music Video/Animation, Best Documentary Short, Best Documentary Feature, Best Narrative Feature, and Best Film.
