We offer cash grants to support projects or professional development for our members, prioritizing applications that celebrate women, non-binary & GNC creators.
We make it easy to crew up and hire for your project or part time and full time positions. It's free to join to start posting crew calls, casting calls, and job listings.


We host virtual and in person events to connect & educate our members on all aspects of filmmaking from development to distribution.
We program screenings to highlight and amplify the outstanding work of our underrepresented filmmakers.


We've launched our pilot Pano Pairs program to connect our members to further support each other as well as a new Cinematographer's Lab in partnership with AbelCine NY.
We offer discounts at every stage in the filmmaking process to reduce financial barriers for our underrepresented filmmakers and their projects.

As we enter our 7th year in operation, much has changed within the organization. What started as a small in-person meet-up in a room at NYU has grown to a thriving network of over 6k filmmakers. With this rapid growth, we at NYC Women Filmmakers (NYCWF) started to feel that our current name was a bit limiting. In an effort to better encompass our unique brand and offerings, we’ve debuted a new name and logo for 2022.
PANO, from panoramic / panorama, reflects our commitment to the wide spectrum of artists we serve – above and below the line, women, non-binary, and GNC folks. We hope that in this new name you will feel reflected, included, and proud to be a part of our community.
