Eastern Florida Alliance of Media Producers


Your Dreams to Screens

Welcome to the Eastern Florida Alliance of Media Producers (EFAMP). We are a Florida-based mutual support group that serves the Florida area roughly bounded by Daytona to the North, Orlando to the West, Melbourne to the East, and Fort Pierce to the South.

EFAMP was initiated in April 2023 to capitalize on the development of practical Artificial Intelligence (AI) solutions, computer and camera hardware/software advancements, and virtual communications to provide unique opportunities for our members.  We achieve this by sponsoring training seminars led by subject matter experts, conducting tailored field events that allow our members to practice newly acquired skills, and issuing creative challenges where participants can show off their talents and win prizes.

Above is a screen shot from our Public Service announcement for the Melbourne Independent Film Festival coming up soon. Look on our “Projects Page” for the link. We are proud of this and it was recently created by our group. 

Our most recent meeting had Mr Russell Sanders,  presenting, “It’s All About Sound” on Thur, 5 Sep 2024 at the Satellite Beach Schecter Center, 1089 South Patrick Drive, Satellite Beach, Florida. He shared our successes and failures in recording and post-processing sound for productions in the hopes that it would help our members avoid some of the pitfalls we’ve experienced.  He also share tips and techniques that should improve any media effort, from smart phone videos to independent feature films.

Our next meeting will be held  on Thur, Oct 3,  2024, to 1089 South Patrick Drive, in Satellite Beach. The session starts at 6:30 but we’ll have the doors open at 6PM for meet and greets and socializing.

This time it’s all about the shot!
Give us 90 mins and we’ll show you how to catch the action, manage your viewer’s attention, and transform subtle images into those that people remember. 
We will discuss our past, current and future efforts before getting to the technical session which will be a nuts-and-bolts-level session about compositing techniques, color theory, smart phone sensor limitations, and lens and shutter dynamics.
 
 

Our Mission Statement:

To provide unique skill development and creative opportunities for our members using correlated virtual communications, in-person meetings, and field events.

Creative Challenges

Our creative challenges are intended to get folks working together and force participants to think in new ways They’re designed to push people outside of their comfort zone.  They’re open to both our membership and the general public.

Skills Development

We try to promote skills development in staged sequences, starting with a virtual session to cover basic skills, followed by a field exercise for hands-on practice, and then the actual event. Unlike our creative challenges, these events are tailored to subsects of our membership.

Media Projects

We support both native group and associate media projects, including for-profit efforts. EFAMP selects efforts that we believe will allow our members to showcase their skills and have fun in the process.

Do you want to be a part of a community of like-minded creatives that seek to push beyond thier current limits and have fun in the process. If that sounds like you, we hope you’ll join us. Let’s see what we can create together.
