What is Catalyst Content Festival?

If instead of making a film, you've created a story that is episodic or narrative in structure (aka, a TV show or podcast) and you want to showcase it to industry executives, agents, and producers you have limited festival options. There are thousands of film festivals, but they do not accept shows.

So, you take it to Catalyst: a 501c3 nonprofit community of creators, executives, agents and fans discovering the best new programming created on independent (aka, non-network) budgets.

Unlike big city festivals where it can be difficult to interact with the right people, Catalyst's special getaway location offers a unique opportunity to meet fellow professionals and make lasting connections.

Everyone! Catalyst is an open public festival. It is not just for entertainment industry folks. Attendees include patrons of the arts, general public, first time creators, major executives & Emmy winners.
