The Goal
Ensure Diversity in Filmmaking
Our goal is to increase diversity in filmmaking through a collective effort - empowerment organizations, top entertainment companies and worldwide audiences. By showcasing the quality of our creative pool, we ensure that great content by diverse filmmakers has an international audience, elevate more individuals into decision-making roles and open doors that have previously been closed to these communities.
The Directors
Underrepresented Backgrounds and Communities
We will empower, elevate, and highlight 10 directors from underrepresented backgrounds in our society. This includes men and women from various ethnicities, LGBTQ communities, and the differently abled.
The Production Team
Anyone can Participate
If this is something you feel like you can support, you are more than welcome to submit your script, throw on your producer’s cap, DP, grip, build sets, or join in however you see fit. Your support is wanted and needed.
Funding
Crowd Funding and Sponsorships
To make this happen, we will raise money through crowd funding and sponsorship. After funding is raised, we will purchase 10 scripts and hire 10 directors and production teams. The money will also be used for support staff, marketing and advertising, legal fees, and accounting, as we plan to make this an annual event
The Premiere
10 Episode Anthology from 10 Directors
Once production is completed, we will hold a festive red carpet premiere.
Award Show
The Open Door Award
After the premiere, the short films will be posted on our website for voting. Participants will be able to vote on various categories, such as best film, best director, and best music score. Then the Open Door Awards will be handed out to the winners of each category at our awards show event, which will be streamed live for the world to see.
