Filmlinker

About Me

Filmlinker was created by an aspiring film producer during the process of making his first independent feature film in New York City. He utilized the internet as a major resource during his collaboration of the development for his first narrative film. During this time, he discovered many useful web sites that he thought other filmmakers would be able to utilize. He bookmarked thousands of websites, categorized them and created Filmlinker's Links Directory .

Although Filmlinker will cover studio film productions, it is primarily dedicated to the creation and production of independent films. Filmlinker's main goal is to provide filmmakers with a place where they can get all the available tools found on the Web and the most recent information related to filmmaking. Filmlinker will also feature articles by other filmmakers.

Directors, Screenwriters, Producers, Editors, Cinematographers, Actors, Art Directors, Film & TV Fans, Musicians, LMs, ADs, PMs, Costume Designers, Agents, Managers, Execs, Documentarians, Effects people, Stuntpeople, Clapper loaders, Grips, Gaffers, Props, Set Designers, PAs, Choreographers, Casting, Publicity, Animators, Distributors, Make-up Artists, Digital Artists, Web Designers, Best Boys, Photographers, basically everyone & anyone who is involved in film production.
