The 2024 MiNY Film Festival was a huge success!

Our grads are working their way up behind the scenes and in the edit - and many of them are also creatives who make their own short films, documentaries, and music videos on weekends and between gigs. They work alongside their MiNY peers and collaborate with the professionals they meet on the job to produce their own work. We're thrilled to showcase their films during our annual film festival!

Thank you to our sponsors and partners, including NYC Mayor’s Office of Media and Entertainment NBCUniversal, Silvercup Studios, and Kaufman Astoria Studios.
