Dear Indie Filmmaker,   Thank you for becoming a member of the Boston Independent Filmmakers Group (BIFG). The purpose of the group is to bring all aspects of independent film making together to network, collaborate and assist each other in moving projects forward, as well as to create new projects and events.  

A writing group. An accountability group. A lamenting and rending of garments group. Every. Single. Week. We'd love for you to join us! This is a basic get-it-done group. The first half hour we introduce ourselves, discuss our work, and make goals for the week. Then we get right down to writing. Did you know that putting several writers to work in one space creates a kind of bubble of focus and productivity? It's pretty amazing. There is no ending point. People generally start wandering out arou …

Are you an editor? Shooter? Script supervisor? Director? Are you full-time or freelancing in the film/video industry? Have you worked on major motion pictures when they come in town? Come to meet other professionals, trade war stories, and have a beer.

Looking for things to do? Join a group of us at Kendall Theater and get drinks after, if so inclined. Come alone or with friends, the more the merrier. In the future we may also sponsor drinks, poker, bowling, wiffle ball, dinner parties, etc....in addition to movie outings. This group is for: young professionals interested in exploring Boston, trying something new, poker, paintball, movies, pubs, bars and assorted activities.

This group is for people who love punk music but lack concert buddies with similar taste in music. The group will focus mainly on punk concerts but will also be open to any type of high-energy, guitar-driven music. Any member is free to post ideas for shows and organize informal meet-ups (no minimum amount of people required!).

I started this group to help authors learn what resources are available to become the best writers they can, produce the book they want, and publish and market it everywhere. The purpose of the group is to provide informative programs and networking opportunites for authors, publishers, editors, agents, designers, etc. to have a forum to learn and meet.

We are an eclectic group of entrepreneurs, writers, publicists, agents, technologists, literary coaches, and publishing professionals. We are striving to create a community of people who will be driving changes in the publishing industry.

Boston has many venues such as the MFA, HFA, Brattle, Coolidge Corner, and local libraries offering movies which demand more from the audience than the typical Hollywood fare. We view the selected film and then go to a nearby restaurant to discuss. Sharing thoughts and ideas from the multiple perspectives gathered, we learn from each other and also have some fun. The goal of the group is to create a community for people who are interested in film and with that in mind, please RSVP with consid …

Le Ciné Club est l' endroit idéal pour rencontrer des francophones sympa du coin qui aiment le cinéma et les bonnes conversations en langue française. Les amis du ciné club se réunissent une fois par mois, généralement le premier lundi du mois,  dans une salle privée du Coolidge Corner Theatre pour voir une bonne toile. Avant le film, on décompresse avec un petit verre. N' hésitez donc pas à amener une bonne bouteille et des gobelets pour déguster sur place! C'est maintenant la tradition. Apr …
