OIF at Fringe. Stage and Film Showcase. Saturday Night on May 17th. 9-11pm
The Orlando Fringe is the oldest running Fringe Festival in the country. In partnering with Fringe, OIF and Fringe are showcasing the overlap and artistic symbiosis of Stage and Film.
The event takes place in the evening, on the lawn in Loch Haven Park. Chairs and covered areas are available.
"Build-a-Bob", a play written by Tracey Jane will open the show on stage, with the film adaptation following. The audience is then invited to ask questions interact with the cast and crew in a Q&A session.
After this segment, we screen about a dozen or so short films produced by OIF members.
This event is FREE and open to the public.
Press/Media is invited.
Whether or not you have a film at this event, we urge you to attend. Anyone in the business should appreciate the exposure and networking opportunities. If you know people in theater, please feel free to invite them as well.
This is our third collaborative year producing this event.

If you're an aspiring New York Indie filmmakers or screenwriter, you'll want to jump in the OIF script-to-screen Rom-Com Short Film Challenge! Free to join, no submission fees.
If you are new to OIF, OIF is a large collaborative indie film community established in Orlando Florida back in 2016, which has since screened close to 1,000 films produced by members!
Our newest chapter, in New York City, is currently holding a script-to-screen Challenge. As of this posting, there are 30 days left to submit a script for your proposed film.
Visit for /nyc/x-challenge/ details.
The Film Challenge process gives filmmakers the opportunity to produce a short film, have that film theatrically screened to an audience, and be judged to receive crystal awards, as well as connect with other like-minded film people. Make it easier to create your film's production team by joining our private Facebook group.
Talent and crew gain credits, possible footage, and create valuable connections by collaborating.
