Filmmakers, Screenwriters and Musicians

Thank you for considering our festival as a home for your work. As filmmakers, we understand the trials and tribulations you've passionately endured. It's been said that every completed production deserves an Oscar.

We at The NOVA Fest know that show business is a marriage of art and commerce. We will do our very best to provide both sides of the equation for you at our festival, along with the recognition that comes with showcasing your work.

Beyond screening productions and awarding the best, we offer distribution seminars and opportunities to network with actual distributors and industry professionals. Too often the commerce portion of the equation is forgotten in the heat of production, especially for first time filmmakers.

So whether this is your one time passion project or you're hungry for yet another laurel on your 20th film, we hope to provide you with both an introduction to the business component of the industry and a perspective into the current state of distribution, both traditional and the newest technological channels.

The die is cast to make the 11th Annual Northern Virginia International Film & Music Festival the best ever!  Hollywood has come to the east coast with the CAPITAL MEDIA MARKET!
