The BronzeLens Film Festival of Atlanta, Georgia is a non-profit organization, founded in 2009, that is dedicated to bringing national and worldwide attention to Atlanta as a center for film and film production for people of color.

Over the course of 4 days in November, 2010, film lovers, actors, and film makers will gather in culture-and-heritage-rich Atlanta, Georgia, at the Atlanta Marriott Marquis to share a creative platform of education, entertainment and empowerment discussions related to film, as well as television, and the production of both. The BronzeLens Film Festival will feature screenings in multiple venues, as well as informative panels, and enlightening Master Classes led by top names in film, direction, and production.

• A flexible schedule – your choice of 3 different shifts each day!
• Opportunity to view screenings, once your shifts are completed!
• Opportunity to attend workshops, once your shifts are completed!
• Outstanding networking with industry professionals at the top of their game!
