X-Factor News and Resources
X-Factor Filmmakers has created a national fund for female
filmmakers. Just 6-11% of film directors and 2% of cinematographers
are women and although X-Factor believes both sexes create
wonderful films, our culture isn’t represented accurately at the movies.
Please give these women your support by contributing to the X-Factor
Film Fund by purchasing X-Factor apparel. 100% of the net proceeds
are donated by X-Factor to our grant and scholarship partners to fund
female filmmakers.
Our support may help that next unique voice in American film produce
her movie which may never be started or completed without additional
funding.

THE X-FACTOR FILM FUND IS HELPING
Anais Godard, a young zesty French writer/director is working
on her second short thriller since moving to Los Angeles. Her
first film, The ROOM, (see teaser trailer) saw much success at
film festivals. She and her team, including me as editor, are
working to turn her new short, The Good Old Days, into a
feature. Keep up with us at the blog!
Synopsis: The Good Old Days
One night, Marine, Thomas, Felix, and Sebastian find
themselves together again after years apart to dig through
stories of youth and friendship. However, the world has
become obsessed with government control.
The administration has drawn a line in the sand and as the
wine flows and the tongues loosen our four dinner guests
discover where their friends stand along that line. Are they
terrorists, freedom fighters, or just trouble makers? Are they
protectors, tyrants, or bullies? Are the reasons for this dinner
so innocent? Through subtle looks and casual remarks this
poker game gets played until all the players have seen that the
good old days are gone.
