Programs & Resources
WIFMCO offers many programs and resources that enable members to advance their professional skills, network, share knowledge, and work on their craft.These offerings are made possible by the generous support of companies and individuals who partner with WIFMCO, sponsor the many events that we host each year, and who donate their time and financial resources to support women in the film and media industries.
Elevation Award
The Elevation Award was created by WIFMCO to honor a woman in the film and media world whose work, both professionally and in support of others, inspires us all to pursue our dreams of telling great, female-empowering stories on screen. The 2019 recipient of the Inaugural Elevation Award was Alison Arngrim.
Screenplay Contest
Our feature film contests for women screenwriting in Colorado. Prizes in the past have included $1000 in cash, a table read and notes from a professional script consultant. We partner with the Colorado Film Commission for this contest.

In order to be eligible, the recipient must be a WIFMCO member in good standing for two consecutive years before applying. Generously funded by Sheila Schroeder and Meryem Ersoz.
