Youth Filmmaker Showcase

 

PCFF is committed to nurturing the work of budding young filmmakers. Created in 2014, the Youth Filmmaker Showcase (YFS) celebrates the artistic talents of youth from here in Rhode Island and around the world. This juried collection of local, national and international films by young filmmakers presents creative and inspiring tales from a new generation of storytellers. The Showcase takes place in February during the annual Providence Children’s Film Festival and includes opportunities for these artists to meet other filmmakers and to share their vision and discuss their inspiration and production challenges.
