Welcome to the Central Valley Film Podcast! By the end of Summer 2020, three filmmakers will be creating three high caliber short films. These short films will then be toured through film festivals in Los Angeles and San Francisco. Following this tour, these films will be released locally in theaters. This movement is meant to inspire and enable creators from all over the Central Valley here in California to strive towards their dreams and goals. By sharing and subscribing to our channel, you will be helping us take our first step towards success. Thank you!
