Programs

Programs and Events at the NMFF were developed to focus on individual career paths in film in the areas of writing, producing, directing and acting. From the beginning stages of your career to advanced classes, the NMFF can provide training and opportunity.​​

Fiscal Sponsorship

Fiscal Sponsorship is a program that is provided by and that allows a tax-exempt, 501(c)(3) organization to support film and media projects. By submitting a project, a vetting process begins and information provided is evaluated to ensure alignment with the foundations core mission. If accepted into the sponsorship and as a Fiscal Sponsor, New Mexico Film Foundation will align with its sponsored partner and enter into a signed agreement. The foundation will provide mentorship and administration and the sponsored project will be eligible to apply for grants and solicit tax-deductible contributions on behalf of the project.

 

The foundation in no way maintains any ownership of the project but provides resources and simplifies organizational functions. 

All Hands In

The NMFF operates 100% on donations

Without the support of our community partners and those individuals who support our mission, we could not continue our pursuit of elevating the talent in New Mexico. Our Board and Advisory Board volunteer thousands of hours with passion and commitment. The NMFF remains the only non-profit in the State of New Mexico that support above the line talent talent.
