SUPPORT FILM & CREATIVE MEDIA IN VERMONT

Coming Attractions

VPC + GMFF

We’re delighted to once again partner with Green Mountain Film Festival to celebrate the work of local artists and provide opportunities for career growth & knowledge sharing.

For this year’s festival we are happy to sponsor the “Vermont Shorts” block of films, Saturday March 14 at 11:45am – featuring films by Charlie Laud, Jesse Kreitzer, Salma AlaaEldeen Badra, and Garret Harkawik. 

Make an Impact! – Film Distribution Panel presented by VPC

What is an impact producer and how do they aid independent film distribution?

In this panel we will work to demystify the work of impact producers, breaking down how directors and producers can assume this work themselves, hire out for the role toward the end of their production process, and/or work with existing activist or advocacy communities. Not limited to documentarians, this session will also consider how impact work can be deployed by narrative fiction filmmakers or any organizer looking to build momentum and awareness.

VPC Presents: Film Tour

In February, The Vermont Production Collective (VPC) announced the launch of VPC Presents: Vermont Films Showcase, a new series dedicated to exhibiting powerful, Vermont-made cinema that showcases the diversity of homegrown filmmaking talent, supports local theaters, and sparks essential community conversations.

The Vermont Film Showcase in Montpelier marked the launch of the ‘VPC Presents’ film tour program. Slated to begin in fall 2026, Vermont Production Collective will tour the state with a yearly program of locally created documentary and narrative fiction films. Ticket sales from events will support filmmakers and independent theaters providing a valuable financial boon to local creators and cultural venues, while providing homegrown entertainment to local audiences and buzzworthy events to draw locals and tourists alike.
