About
FMFB - FilmMusicFashion&Babes
Is a web based magazine, coalition & online community and
festival out of NYC. Intended for the general public but first and foremost for
filmmakers by filmmakers, for musicians by musicians, for fashion designers by
fashion designers, for thespians and models by thespians and models. We are
dedicated to the celebration of our art and dedicated to providing the brightest
emerging talent with an outlet to publicize, promote, and showcase their
brand of artistic
talent.
FMFB
features established and emerging talent in their
respective fields. Our goal is to maximize the level
of exposure the brightest emerging talent deserves
while providing a service for established talent.
It does not matter what level of this game we call
entertainment one is in, the bottom line is creating
our art, having it come to life while staying within
budget. Whether DIY or doing it with other people's
money (Sponsors), we have to face up to the fact
that art needs funding. The key is delivering a great
finished product while staying within the confines
of the available budget.
The
idea came to me while spending some time on the set
of the HBO production of The Meyer Lansky Story.
Fred Zollo and his partner decided to cut costs by
having a singer do a cover of a Jazz song they were
using in a scene. The licensing rights for the original
were extremely high. They gave a complete unknown
singer a shot at the big time and they cut their
costs. Everybody walked away happy and the producers
kept their costs down.
Filmmakers
need actors and models, fashion designers for wardrobe
and music to set tone and mood. Whether filmmaker,
musician, fashion designer, model or thespian we
all need each other. We intend on bridging the gap
between established and emerging talent by featuring
both side by side.
The
Festival
The
FMFB Festival coincides with Fashion Week in NYC
every September and February. As a prelude to the
festival we are hosting monthly events in NYC and
NJ. Under the banner of our Film&Music series. We are not similar to
other festivals where there will be a competition or panels to attend. The
festival is all about the celebration of our art, film screenings, band
showcases, fashion shows, actors showcases, parties and networking. It is all about
taking our careers into our hands.
The
Magazine

magazine is a webzine that has has been tested
in limited markets with limited print runs and will go into print on a quarterly basis throughout
