In an effort to increase collaboration among LDS filmmakers throughout the world there is a new social networking website called the LDS Filmmakers’ Network. The site is designed to serve as the online gathering place for Mormon film, television, and media professionals throughout the world by helping Church members in these industries meet, collaborate, receive feedback, and enhance both their work and the strength of the Church throughout the globe. It is open to all Latter-day Saints over 18 years of age regardless of professional experience and whether their films are gospel-themed or mainstream; it seeks to enhance, not replace, existing resources like LDSFilm.com, the LDS Film Festival, and the Mormon Literature & Creative Arts Database, as well as general organizations like IFP, Shooting People, Production Hub, and Mandy.com.  (more…)
