Faith and Family Filmmakers Association, a leading facilitator of training, networking and growth in the faith-based and faith-friendly film space, is proud to announce the launch of its new online service, the VIP Producers Mentorship Program. This producers program offers aspiring filmmakers the opportunity to learn the steps necessary to produce successful, profitable films, within a faith-friendly community.
It’s no secret Hollywood is struggling. Media outlets all over the world blame AI, streaming services, and politics for the slow decline, and they aren’t wrong. Those forces certainly can affect any industry; but Faith and Family Filmmakers Association, which offers online education and networking opportunities, and is dedicated to entertainment that aligns with traditional family values, sees a different reason for the decline. Even better, they propose a solution.
Faith and Family Filmmakers Association is passionate in the belief that good stories don’t rely on nudity or profanity to sell and they aren’t alone. Instructor Alexandra Boylan, award winning writer and producer of films like Catching Faith and Identity Crisis states, “my teen girl movie Switched, which was very successful… about two girls in high school that switch bodies– [went] out to studios and they all made offers on it. But the number-one requirement was that I had to make it raunchy, and I had to have the girls do inappropriate things... So, I walked away.” Switched went on to become the number one movie on Pure Flix, and continues to be a huge inspiration to teen girls all over the world.
After producing 8 successful feature films, Boylan has teamed up with Faith and Family Filmmakers to create the VIP Producers Mentorship Program: a producers program for like minded filmmakers, who want to learn the art of producing profitable movies, and who have the talent to create comedy, romance and drama without nudity, glorified substance use and profanity. It's a program that stands to make a new wave of entertainment – the kind of entertainment that tells stories with adult themes in faith friendly ways. The kinds of movies audiences can watch with a clear conscience.
The VIP Producers Mentorship Program is a self-paced virtual program with VIP perks. Over the course of this producers program, aspiring filmmakers complete lessons and homework assignments to advance their understanding of tough topics like how to craft a compelling screenplay, film funding, and film distribution, covering all the steps necessary to produce a successful, profitable film.
Students are given the opportunity to further their understanding or ask questions specific to their projects in one-to-one sessions with mentors like Boylan and Whitt. Participants also benefit from access to a private community of like minded screenwriters and producers so they’ll never feel alone in their filmmaking projects.
