Hoodox is thrilled to announce our new, one-of-a-kind filmmaker event: DreamDox! This half day conference is an opportunity for Hoosier filmmakers to make connections with fellow storytellers, hear from speakers both inside and outside of the industry, and take actionable steps toward bringing your dream documentary projects to life. We’ll be returning to the Stutz Building in Indianapolis, where over 100 filmmakers gathered in March for the first State of Film event! DreamDox will be held on Friday April 25th from noon to 5pm, with a networking lunch at noon, breakout sessions until 4pm and a closing keynote to top it all off. Around ten speakers will present. Many will be familiar faces from the Indiana filmmaking industry who will bring expertise ranging from how to pitch your project to filming techniques to narrowing down your story. Speakers from outside the film industry will bring valuable insights from their own, unique perspectives. Oh, and did we mention registration is FREE?! That’s right - five hours of professional development and networking paid for by our supportive Hoodox donors and sponsors! Space will be limited! Register now to snag your spot, and be sure to check back often as speaker and breakout session announcements will be coming soon!

“We’ve never seen a gathering like this in Indiana and, therefore, we’ve never experienced the impact of what could happen when a large group of documentary filmmakers gather in one place with a specific purpose.” - Hoodox Executive Director, Rocky Walls, introducing the nonprofit organization’s newest program. “You may have heard of our fall event, an annual pitch competition called PitchDox where we give away over $10,000 in financial support to Indiana filmmakers. This will be a new spring season event that will help pave the road to a brighter future for documentary filmmaking in Indiana.” Mark your calendars now for Friday, April 25th from noon-5pm for an event you won’t want to miss. If you’re a Hoosier filmmaker or you have a passion for the way documentary films can positively effect Indiana, you should plan to be in Indy on 4/25/25! Watch for the full announcement on Tuesday, March 25th.

We’re dreaming up something big… We’re about to make history again with another first-of-its-kind event just for Hoosier documentary filmmakers. Mark your calendars now for Friday, April 25th and stay tuned to find out more.
