And you’re invited to get in on the ground floor.
In recent years, Reno has grown into a haven for anyone with an entrepreneurial spirit. As a result, companies such as Microsoft, Apple, and Tesla have selected Reno as a place to open up extensions of their companies. And with the launch of the film incentive fund, more and more filmmakers are discovering how easy and profitable it is to produce in northern Nevada!
So it only makes sense that we create a world class event to showcase you, the filmmaker, the screenwriter, the actor, the artist. RTIFF will screen 101 films over five days in the Reno Tahoe region. The films will be Narrative Features, Shorts, Documentaries, & Foreign Features. Some of our programs are: Silver State Sensations (featuring films, documentaries, and shorts filmed with Nevada talent - can be a local Director, Cinematographer, Actor, Writer, etc.), World Perspectives (films/documentaries that broaden understanding through storytelling), Thrill Seekers (featuring Thriller/Horrors features / shorts), Faith-based shorts, features, and documentaries & Leading Ladies (films with strong female characters leading the way), & Student Films.
Every film will be assigned their own Twitterati to get the word out during their screenings about audience reaction, stunning set pieces, and more to help build the filmmakers platform and attract film buyers.
In addition, the RTIFF offers screenwriters a screenwriting contest where the top ten winners will be shared with vetted industry producers and the top three winners will receive cash awards. So take advantage of the early submission and submit your screenplay today!
