Callout to all AZ Filmmakers! FilmBar is about to start a monthly AZ filmmaker showcase! Local Arizona filmmakers are encouraged to submit a short or feature and the winning selections will screen for an audience in a public screening at FilmBar! There is no submission fee & the contest is open to all Arizona Filmmakers. Winning films will be screened at the monthly Showcase (check our calendar for dates) and the winners will get 5 minutes to introduce their work. Additional discussion and networking is welcome after the event in our lounge. Filmmakers are also able to sell merchandise and copies of their films onsite. Two shorts & one feature will be selected to play each month. Submissions from any year (not just 2013) will be considered (as long as they were shot in AZ).

Interested? Submit this form along with your film in person during business hours or mail it to:

You may be asking yourself a few questions right about now. “OK, I have the voucher and I see a movie I like — now what? Here are a few pointers that should clear things up for you.

1. Is my Living Social Voucher good for all movies? Almost. Each month, we’ve got some films we show that are, for example, shown only once or twice. Or, perhaps, we’ll show a film created by a local filmmaker. These shows are considered special events and we don’t allow Living Social vouchers to be used for them. BUT — a great many of our screenings (in fact, most) are not special events and we’ll welcome your voucher with loving arms — we may even hug you.

2. How do I determine of a show is a special event or not? Thanks for asking! On the film details page for any film, you’ll find a message under the Tickets button that reads “The event is a special screening and not valid for Living Social deals.”

For example:

If you don’t see that message, then saddle up, bring your coupon, and enjoy the show!

3. Can we reserve seats with a Living Social voucher?  Unfortunately, no.  We assure you, however, that you’re all but guaranteed a seat if you arrive at least 30 minutes before showtime!

4. Once I arrive, how do I redeem the voucher? It’s simple! Just belly up to the bar, present your coupon to a bartender and tell them which film you’d like to use it for.  Your friendly bartender will take care of you from there!
