Rewarding
The Juice Award is a crowd sourced grassroots initiative to recognize and reward women feature film directors. Selected US festivals will present $1,000 Juice Awards to a 1st or 2nd time female director. Tangerine works with programmers to include more female-helmed narrative features. The Juice Award serves to acknowledge new work, promote awareness, and continue to build audiences for films made by women.
Mentoring
Each directing award comes with five hours of consultation by Tangerine and other industry veterans, including introductions, festival and distribution advice and guidance on future projects.
Community Building
A series of receptions for women directors provides opportunities for emerging talent to mingle with industry veterans, fostering networking and peer-to-peer support.
