WV FILM OFFICE
WEST VIRGINIA FILMMAKERS GUILD
In association with
APPALACHIAN FILM FESTIVAL
PRESENT
A Wunderbar Social
We are coming to Huntington! Our mission is quite simple. We need to build a network of film industry professionals within the state. Productions are eyeing West Virginia and the interest continues to grow. It’s important that we give it our best foot forward, connect, and build our network as soon as possible.
As part of the 2025 WVFG state meet and greet tour, we are calling all filmmakers, storytellers, and creatives to join us. The WV Film Office and West Virginia Filmmakers Guild are joining with the Appalachian Film Festival to make this gathering a unique opportunity to connect with fellow filmmakers in the area, exchange ideas, and build our network.
This is not just for filmmakers! We are looking for real estate agents to help secure locations, electricians, carpenters, drivers, and yes, actors interested in background work. It takes a village to make a film. For those that are curious, you are more than welcome to attend.

We hope that all those in the area can stop by and say hello. You Charleston folks aren’t too far away and that goes for the Kentucky peeps as well.
Make a weekend out of it! The Appalachian Film Festival will be active all day Saturday, April 26, at the Foundry Theatre. Catch some of the latest films out of WV and don’t forget to swing by our booth and say hey. Carpe diem.
Rain or shine, there shall be snacks…
Hope to see you there! All are welcome.
