2014 LAGFF SPONSORSHIP OPPORTUNITIES
Have you considered the benefits and rewards of becoming an LAGFF Sponsor?

By supporting our events and film programs, LAGFF Sponsors share our mission to nurture independent filmmakers and expand awareness of Greek cinema and culture.

Los Angeles is home to the biggest film industry in the Western world. With over 10 million residents, the city is defined by Hollywood. Several countries hold their own film festivals in Los Angeles - including India, Israel, Armenia, France, Italy, Ireland, Spain, and more - attracting an array of diverse audiences to showcase their nations' finest cinematic achievements. Greece has an equal opportunity in Hollywood to present American audiences our language and culture through filmed entertainment - and giving them the chance to discover film gems that would not otherwise be seen.

Sponsors help to make this possible while enjoying non-profit tax benefits as well as exposure through our advertising campaign (TV, radio, print, internet), our website and social media, catalog, and on-site events.

In a difficult economic climate and with resources continually diminishing, LAGFF relies on sponsor support more than ever so that it may stay true to its mission and continue to expand the horizon of cultural creativity.

To receive our comprehensive Sponsorship Packet outlining Sponsor benefits, please contact Ersi Danou at ersi@lagreekfilmfestival.org

Donation may be made to LAGFF. Visit the Festival's Donation Page - and thank you for your continued support of Los Angeles Greek Film Festival.

A LETTER FROM LAGFF CO-PRODUCER ELENI ARVANITI
EleniDear LAGFF Friends,

With LAGFF 2014 quickly approaching, we are once again kicking off our HOST A FILMMAKER campaign and seeking the generosity of host families willing to open their homes to host 1-2 filmmakers during the days of this year's festival. Is there a possibility that you or perhaps someone you know may be interested? This year's festival will be held at the Egyptian Theatre in Hollywood, 6712 Hollywood Blvd., Los Angeles, CA 90028, June 4 - 8, 2014.

We seek homes that are within 10 miles (or a reasonable distance) from the theater and can provide a private room (ideally with separate bath) for approximately 5-6 days (arrival/departure dates will vary) for 1-2 people. As the festival activities last all day long, the filmmaker will only be in your home to shower, change, and sleep!

We also require that any filmmakers staying in host homes will have their own transportation (rental car). Hosts are not expected
to provide any other amenities, such as meals, etc.

As Filmmaker Liaison of the festival over the last 6 years, I have had the privilege of getting to know all of our filmmakers personally. By the time they arrive in Los Angeles, I have an understanding of the artistic impulse that drives them, the challenges that they have faced, obstacles they have overcome, and risks they have taken to pursue their passion. For many of them, coming to Los Angeles is a dream - but unfortunately an economic challenge. Therefore, it gives me great satisfaction to champion their efforts on behalf of LAGFF and provide them with as much encouragement and support as possible.

I hope that your home is a good match to HOST A FILMMAKER and you find opening your home and lending your support to a filmmaker to be a worthwhile endeavor. On behalf of our filmmakers, I thank you for the kindness and support you have shown by believing in the festival and your continued support of the arts. I look forward to hearing back from you and seeing you at the festival! - Eleni Arvaniti

If you would like to participate in our HOST A FILMMAKER program, please contact Eleni at eleni@lagreekfilmfestival.org
