The magazine is now published by the IFP (Independent Filmmaker Project), which acts in the independent film community.[1]

Background

With a readership of more than 60,000, the magazine includes interviews, case studies, financing and distribution information, festival reports, technical and production updates, legal pointers, and filmmakers on filmmaking in their own words.

The magazine used to be available outside the US in London but has not been on sale in the UK since early 2009.
