United Filmmakers & Actors

READ QUOTES FROM MEMBERS, VIEW PHOTOS, VIEW A VIDEO FROM OUR MEETINGS. http://screenwriters.meetup.com/303/about/

This group is for people who are not content with merely waiting around for that elusive "big break," but are ready to CREATE THEIR OWN PROJECTS to express their creative visions and take charge of their own future.

Come out and meet others interested in partnering: creatively, resources, as well as monetarily to make films. If you are an Actor, Writer, Filmmaker, or other, and have a project - or are interested in working on a project - and are seeking the help from others to make it happen, sign up, come out, PITCH YOUR PROJECT AND LISTEN TO SOME OTHER PITCHES.

YOUR CHOICE - in a few years from now you can read about films at festivals that are getting attention, or you can have one of your own!

If you feel you may be ready to unite with others and invest in yourself, come out and join us!
