I really feel that you are doing a huge service to filmmaking community.
I can say for myself this level of encouragement and support has been missing for upwards of 15 years. I am very happy to be a part of what both of you are creating and consider being a part of it a great gift.
'I've met people from all over the globe which whom I formed really close connections and managed to watch films I wouldn't have access to otherwise.
It gave me confidence in my work and I can recommend it to everyone.'
(Gemma even bought memberships for her friends to share the love!)
I’ve seen the world and back, but you surprise me, as it is REALLY RARE, in this world to find people that are so in equilibrium. You are compassionate, brilliant, intelligent, organized, inspiring and creative. All in one! So first of all, the Club, and having you near, is making me feel less lonely and more happy, relax, fulfilled and
I’ve seen the world and back, but you surprise me, as it is REALLY RARE, in this world to find people that are so in equilibrium. You are compassionate, brilliant, intelligent, organized, inspiring and creative. All in one! So first of all, the Club, and having you near, is making me feel less lonely and more happy, relax, fulfilled and strong.
The FFC is having a positive impact on my business (AURA). This is not only a Club, this is a movement you are creating and it is impacting so positively in my life and the people around. I feel myself more compassionate, collaborative and I think THIS IS THE WAY for a better world.
'You have created such a supportive and inspiring space, it's so brilliant! I absolutely loved your courses and community, the FFC is so inclusive'
'The connections I've made through the FFC and it's courses made my journey very special as all the women were so inspirational and supportive.
I wouldn't be here if it wasn't for the FFC'
'I've never been in a film community that actually walks the walk. That does the work, that gives genuine results in my film career and mindset. These women in the community are incredible and I can recommend everyone to join!'
Yes you always have the oppurunity to upgrade your cohort. As you advance in your career we will make sure that you work towards taking that next Stage in your journey. Upgrading between the stages can every time a new cohort start without any fee. Upgrading to the Bespoke is on application.
Most of our events are between 45-60 min on Wednesdays at different time zones to accommodate our global members. Our FFC app makes the club easy to access anytime, anywhere whenever you have a min or two.
We don’t have any clutter/advertisement on our app so you won’t waste time scrolling through uninteresting junk to find valuable information. If you have time to scroll through social media, you can scroll through the FFC and get one step closer to your successful feature instead ;).
Of course! This platform is not only for cis-gender woman but EVERY filmmaker is more than welcome to be a member!
We are committed to making the club as inclusive as possible and welcome any feedback. Our mission is to work towards a film industry that celebrates ALL humans and are willing to listen, learn, and amplify the voices that have been silenced for too long.
In addition, if you are a male-identifying filmmaker that would love to level up with us, our doors are open.
We are not a traditional job posting platform, however many of our members have achieved success by connecting through FFC over time, leading to exciting projects and creative partnerships that, in some cases, have even involved international collaboration.
We have editors, film distributors, composers, casting agents and more joining our membership as they can benefit from skills such as negotiation, sales, organisation.
All the mindset events (which is 50%) is helpful to you as self sabotaging your work, procrastination, focus etc is universal and so are all the Technology events (20%).
We’ve created the club with you in our minds and have therefor decided that every meeting is child-friendly, you can bring your child along and we’ll make sure that everyone watches their languages and the topics are appropriate when there are children around. This way you don't have to choose, we'll make sure you can do it all!
That’s great! The Female Film Club is more than just a networking platform, we are here to get you accountability and to support your growth. We're an international community that supports and cheers you on a good day, a bad day, and everything in between.
We made our membership platform extremely easy to use, if we can do it, so can you! On top of that we’ll guide you through any problems and you can always email us. As long as you’ll have a smartphone or laptop you’ll be absolutely fine.
It's no surprise that there is a big gender disparity in the film industry. We are here to ensure that women and non-binary filmmakers don't hold themselves back from making a successful feature (because there's never enough of them!).
We have created a space where sensitive conversations can be brought up and discussed, particularly female specific problems as there is a lack of support for women in the film industry.
We still value and champion brilliant films made by men and will recommend those films who honour the female gaze.
Don’t worry, this is exactly why many women join the Female Film Club. You see how comfortable you’ll feel after just one meetup and how welcoming our members are. We’ll make sure you’ll feel relaxed and heard. The sessions are being led, and there is no pressure at all on the amount you’ll speak.
With 65+ different nationalities in the club, no one expects others to be fluent in English. Everyone in our community is respectful and we LOVE having so many women speaking different languages.
Google translate and join the conversation in the chat is always an option, perhaps there are more members that speak your language and Nicole and Liza speak 9 languages combined so there might even be a chance we can translate for you!
