We aim to inspire and strengthen women filmmakers and film scoring composers in the collegiate community
Building Relationships is Our Core Value
We know that creating and cultivating meaningful friendships outside of classes between artists of every media discipline - directors, cinematographers, editors, musicians, and composers - can lead to even more fruitful collaborations after graduation.
At WFI, we know the power of cultivating community
We’re changing the world of film - one female filmmaker at a time
We’re firm believers in the power of confident leaders and their power to inspire and empower other artists in their community. That’s why we specifically target the collegiate years when artists have the most in common and can explore their creative potential together.
We face challenges head-on
In addition to facilitating meaningful networking across various colleges and universities, WFI offers training seminars and seeks to create conversations about the unique challenges women face and how students can better prepare to face those challenges once they graduate and enter the industry.
“I would love to see more women directors, because they are half the population, and they gave birth to the whole world….They must put on their coats of armour and get on with it, because we need them.”
— Jane Campion
