The first-ever Fayette Youth Film Festival will celebrate and embrace all we admire in our youth's creativity, individuality, and talent. This event will showcase young filmmakers that have a positive message or unique viewpoint about who they are through this year’s theme, I AM.

A panel of industry experts from "The Walking Dead," Pinewood Studios, Tyler Perry Studios, John Green's "Paper Towns," "Imba Means Sing," and others will share stories about the industry and inspire us to follow our dreams. Through our red carpet experience, industry expert panel, and short film selections, we aim to educate and inspire our audience.

All proceeds from this event will go to the I AM Foundation, a 501 (c) aimed at changing the story of our youth.
