The Lookout Wild Film Festival is an outdoor adventure and conservation festival in Chattanooga, Tenn., that aims to celebrate what we call "wild" films. We are looking for projects that celebrate the wild places around the Southeast, North America and the world.
Topics of such films may include — but are not limited to — exploration, conservation, nature, wildlife, survival and outdoor activities such as adventure sports. Some sports/activities we hope to encompass are: rock climbing, cycling, paddling, hiking, hang gliding, skiing, running, mountain biking, fishing, birding, snowshoeing, caving, boarding (snow, wake, skate and others), horseback riding, surfing, multisport, slack lining, base jumping and whatever else people are doing outside.
We are looking for narrative and documentary films, feature-length, shorts and everything in between.
But beyond any specific activity or theme, the LWFF board is looking for films that share our love of the outdoors and storytelling. We want films that take us places we can't go — or haven't gone yet. We want films that help us see things with a new perspective.
Films will be shown over three days at the historic Chattanooga Choo Choo.
Chattanooga is a youthful, growing outdoor mecca drawing in top experts and athletes from around the United States. The city are also garnering attention from media outlets and tourism groups, headlined by Outside Magazine calling the Scenic City its "Best City Ever" in 2011 and the New York Times declaring that Chattanooga has the fastest Internet speeds in the country in 2010.
We believe that the Lookout Wild Film Festival will be key part of Chattanooga's continued growth as a destination for both outdoor enthusiasts and young, techie creatives. We hope to see you here!

The film festival became a 501(c)3 and launched in 2009! It has been growing every since. We have since added a Creative Director, Hollywood Director Joe Carnahan, who has brought us such films as "The Grey" and "The A-Team" with Liam Neeson and top rated television shows like "The Blacklist" and "State of Affairs". He has been a powerful partner in our festival!
The festival is conveniently located downtown, we're in the middle of the arts and entertainment district. And after the films we host some of the best after parties with live bands and fantastic food and drinks!

Its thanks to people such as Grant believing in me from an early stage of my development that has helped me get to where I am now."

Created by Jose Ruiz, Jr., the Co-Founder of the Manhattan Film Festival in NYC, as an opportunity to introduce his love for independent film into the city & community that he grew up in, the West Side Film Series is an opportunity to showcase independent cinema, on an ongoing basis (Twice per month), to an audience that is not typically afforded the opportunity to experience such quality artistic film. Located in St. Paul, MN -the West Side Neighborhood has been home to many immigrant communities, and was once dubbed, "The Ellis Island of the Midwest". Today, the neighborhood is home to a respectful, diverse community that has flourished through local business impact, and is continuing to evolve as a flourishing artistic town. The series will be open to all in proximity, including the booming Lowertown Arts Community! A great opportunity to showcase your film to a great audience to build buzz for your film. Proceeds will go to benefit Prodigy Sports, a local organization that provides quality athletic training opportunities to high school students from various communities.
With submission to this film series, films will also receive free submission to a film festival that will be announced shortly, to be held in beautiful Downtown St. Paul, recently named "The most romantic city in North America"!
