RIPFEST is always looking for new people to get involved from filmmakers and collaborators to producers and helpers! Participating in RIPFEST has benefits long after the event is over, through the work you do and the people you meet.
Through our events, we've introduced collaborators to one another who have gone on to create dozens of new works together in film, television, theater, and dance.
If you would like to participate on one of the filmmaking teams, please follow the submission guidelines below.
If you’d like to help as an event volunteer or in the organizational process,
please e-mail us at participate@ripfest.com and introduce yourself.
