I would really love to see you all at this next Halloween party. As many of you know we put on these events not for the money, not for the status or even for recognition. It’s genuinely to see all of your faces and to see the expression when you walk into an Arizona Filmmakers event greeted by some amazing people. I miss you guys and to see you all dressed up enjoying free drinks and seeing those big smiles as we watch local films, laugh, get frightened and be amazed at what we created is what it really is about. I hope we can share that magic with you all.

Tickets in the bio or at arizonafilmmakers.com

Lumina Cinema (luminacinema.ai) brings Talia Lotan to the cinema big screen!

An Israeli filmmaker and documentary editor, Talia built her career in conventional documentary, with several of her films broadcast on Israeli television. Today she brings that discipline to AI cinema. Her focus shines in reviving history and recreating forgotten worlds and the human stories inside them.

A student of history, she combines archival research, historical authenticity, and cinematic storytelling to show the human side of historical figures, connecting today’s audiences with lives that might otherwise fade into the record.

Her film “Stonewall, The Making Of” shows what that looks like. It follows the production of an unmade feature about a Civil War general, weaving interviews with on-set footage until the line between a behind-the-scenes record and history disappears.

🏆 Best AI Documentary, AI Entertainment Con Year III (Stonewall, The Making Of)
🎬 Official selection, “The AI Films” section, 19th Mumbai International Film Festival (MIFF) 2026

Now, as a LUMINA Luminary, her work will reach independent cinemas and theaters, bringing light back to stories history nearly forgot.

Welcome, Talia. We are proud to have you onboard.

Meet us at LuminaCinema.ai

THE ACTING SEMINAR is FREE with Tom Proctor if you're attending the festival!

Booked & Busy! Sat Oct 24th 2pm - 3:30pm #tucson #Arizona
The audition Technique and Business Tips That Keep You Working

A 90-Minute #acting #seminar with Tom Proctor

In this 90-minute seminar, actor Tom Proctor pulls back the curtain on 35 years and 150-plus films — from Guardians of the Galaxy and Django Unchained to 12 Years a Slave, Lawless, and Justified, plus the TV series Blue Ridge and his film Birthright Outlaw — to hand you the exact tools it took him decades to figure out the hard way. His mission is simple: get you where you want to be faster, without making the mistakes that cost him time. At the center of it is his signature audition technique — the one thing that consistently gets him to the callback, if not the booking, by separating him from every other actor in the casting director’s stack.

The second half is all about the business of the business — because talent alone doesn’t keep you working. Tom shares the practical, real-world habits that keep a career alive and keep you in front of the people who hire, long after the audition is over.

What’s covered:
Tom’s number one audition technique — the approach designed to make you stand out from the rest of the room and land the callback every time.

Standing out to casting directors — what actually separates a memorable audition from a forgettable one
The business side of acting — the professional habits that keep you booking and staying relevant.

Staying in the limelight — how to build and maintain visibility so you’re top of mind when roles come up
Lessons from 35 years and 150+ films — the costly mistakes to skip and the shortcuts Tom wishes he’d known early

Live Q&A — bring your questions about auditioning, breaking in, and lasting in the industry

Actors are advised to sign up NOW — a set of sides for a scene that will be used in the class will be sent out to registered participants that are attending TWBFF within 48hrs - 72hrs to the FIRST LARGE GROUP OF ACTORS/ACTRESSES that sign up. NOT MANY SPOTS LEFT!! Email us at thewildbunchfilmfestival@gmail.com for the sign up. #FilmFestival

The proposed bipartisan U.S. Federal Film Incentive was officially introduced on September 24th as the Motion Picture, Television, and Entertainment Revitalization Act. While this is a major development, it's important to emphasize that we are still at the very earliest stage of the legislative process.

At a high level, the current version of the bill creates a new 20 percent federal credit on qualified U.S. labor, with up to four 5 percent uplifts, bringing the potential credit to 30 percent for productions that meet specific criteria such as rural opportunity zones, disaster areas, independent producers, multi-state operations, or increases in domestic production. The current bill does not include a salary cap, program cap, or sunset date – something that can be expected to change.

If this incentive moves forward, it could spark a meaningful shift in where productions choose to land and strengthen the competitiveness of U.S. labor overall. The Olsberg SPI study offers a glimpse of what that impact might be, estimating more than 125 billion dollars in new production spending nationwide.

For Arizona, the federal incentive could create new momentum for the state's production industry. Stacking federal and state incentives would give producers a stronger financial reason to consider locating projects here. In turn, this could help attract a wider mix of productions, encourage continued investment in local crew and vendors, and open doors for both independent and studio driven work. However, it is doubtful the bill will advance this session unless it becomes part of a broader tax package. Best to consider the current activity as a movie trailer with a future release date in early 2027!

We’re often asked, “When will you screen again in Phoenix?!?”

We’re grateful to share The Only Way Out Is Through will play in the Best of Phoenix Film Festival screening series on Monday, October 26 at 7:00pm at Harkins Scottsdale 101.

Our time at @phoenixfilmfestival was meaningful. We were able to share the film with over 400 people, won Best Ensemble, and our director @kieranthompson was named Arizona Filmmaker of the Year.

We’re planning something extra special for this one. Instead of a traditional Q&A, we’re going to do an extended post-film discussion with our director Kieran Thompson and therapist Colter Bloxom, LPC, of @thrivetherapyphx.

We’ve always hoped this film would start conversations about male friendship and mental health, and we’re curious to see where Colter takes this one.

We sold out all three of our Phoenix Film Festival screenings, and we expect demand to be high for this one too.
