By using NWFF¹s theater, Progress in Works offers your film production new development opportunities. By using our cinema, you can show a work in progress to pursue potential funders, celebrate your accomplishments with your cast and crew, or screen a rough cut to get critical feedback. The grant offers you a single event held at our cinema, up to three hours in duration with the facilities and staff to project either a film (35mm, 16mm or 8mm) or video (DVD, DVCam, or BetaSP). You can make the event free for your audience, or charge admission.
