Filmmaker is a quarterly publicationmagazine covering issues relating toindependent film. The magazine was founded in 1992 byKarol Martesko-Fenster, Scott Macaulay andHolly Willis. The magazine is now published by the IFP (Independent Filmmaker Project), which acts in the independent film community.[1]
The magazine was launched in 1992, as a merger between the two magazines run by IFP (The Off-Hollywood Report, 1986-1992) and IFP/West ("Montage: the Unruly Magazine of Independent Film.")
With a readership of more than 60,000, the magazine includes interviews, case studies, financing and distribution information, festival reports, technical and production updates, legal pointers, and filmmakers on filmmaking in their own words.[citation needed]
The magazine used to be available outside the US in London but has not been on sale in the UK since early 2009.[citation needed] It has been printed on a regularly quarterly schedule, only missing one print release in the summer of 2020 during the global pandemic, instead releasing this issue by PDF.[2]
