Our mission is to educate filmmakers about the state, collect leads and brand Georgia as the entertainment capital of the world.” 

Several films with Georgia connections will be participating in this year’s festival and announcements impacting Georgia are also slated to be shared at the event.

The ‘From Script to Screen’ programming includes activations throughout the entire duration of the festival including events with FilmUSA and the American Pavilion. Partners will receive full contact information of filmmakers participating in our invite only Rooftop Soiree, networking social and panel sessions.
