Austin Film Meet is a monthly networking event produced by AIM, the Association for Independent filMedia. Held monthly, this film industry mixer has been a staple of the video and film scene in Central Texas for quite some time. First hosted as the Reel Women First Monday Mixer, it eventually became a joint mixer between Reel Women and Austin Film Meet. After Reel Women dissolved in the summer of 2011, Austin Film Meet continued the tradition.
Typically held on the first Monday of the month at Stompin’ Grounds on South Congress Avenue, just a block or so north of Hwy 71.
The popular networking mixer brings together local indie film and media makers of all types and skill levels in a fun, friendly atmosphere.
We focus on raising skill levels and professionalism through increased awareness, education and experience. We encourage a sense of community and a pay-it-forward attitude within our group.
We believe in helping each other help each other. By working together, we accomplish more, faster and better.
We’ve been called “the group that gets things done” and “an AA for indie filmmaking junkies”. We are producers, directors, actors, crew, artists, promoters, writers, photographers, cinematographers, designers, grips, gaffers, sound mixers & recordists, sound designers, musicians, composers, coordinators, and more!
