A series of free workshops will be provided throughout the film festival which will focus on topics in micro-budget filmmaking. Those sitting on the panels include Independent filmmakers and producers from Central Florida, as well as the directors of the films 2xUno, Less Lost, Waterhole Cove, and The Spacewalk.

The Social Media Panel will discuss the role of social media when marketing a micro-budget film. Filmmakers will discuss the social media strategies they have used, and how to effectively reach your desired audience.

The Equipment Panel will discuss how filmmakers create shots and use cameras on a budget, what equipment is essential and unessential, and how can you shoot a movie for $200,000 and it look like it was made for $1 million.

All-Access Passes are available for only $30. Tickets to films are $5, $7 for the opening night screening of Midnight Son which grants access to the Kickoff Reception.
