We're coming to you—filmmakers, audience, fans, and corporations—requesting
outside donations for equipment, money, and airline miles. You know
all those airline miles you (or your mom or your sister or your husband)
have accumulated on business trips? You can donate these miles to filmmakers
who will use them to fly to crucial locations. You know that video
camera you rarely get out of the closet anymore? We know a filmmaker
who will put it to great use. Do you work for a company that has services
or equipment a filmmaker could use? Rooftop Films will work with you
to arrange mutually-beneficial trade -- we can give you free advertising
in exchange for use of gear or services.
We know filmmakers who need:
+ airline miles
+ funding (from small to large projects, of all kinds)
+ equipment
+ time, services, skills
If you are interested in helping out a project or finding out more
about the projects that need help, please email Artistic Director Mark
Elijah Rosenberg at filmfund@rooftopfilms.com. We can really use your
assistance, and, whether or not you’re a filmmaker yourself,
this is a great way to play a truly active role in getting independent
films made.
