OVERVIEW
The Made in Miami Film and Video Festival (MIM) is the only festival of its kind, unique to any other festival
on the globe in its theme to spotlight works in film and television created or post -produced in Miami.
Through film screenings, public acknowledgements, educational outreach, and a scholarship program, MIM
was designed to increase public awareness of the important role that film and television production plays in
our community from both a creative and economic standpoint. Additionally, it is the mission of MIM to
introduce careers in film and television as a viable option to our multicultural, multi-ethnic student
population, and to help provide the means via an ongoing scholarship program for interested students to
obtain post -secondary degrees in the film and television field.
Successful on all counts, the 2002 Festival was co -hosted by actors Stephen Baldwin and Oscar Torres and
drew nearly 8,000 attendees (3,000 more than anticipated) at the 50 screenings which took place during the
Festival's seven day event. Profits from the Festival's "wrap party" provided scholarship funds; local icons in
the industry were recognized for their contributions; high school students attended a day -long seminar on
the film industry, led by film professionals; impressive publicity was generated as far away as Cordoba,
Spain.
MIM 2003 will follow the successful pattern of its 2002 inaugural event at the 2003 Festival — happening
January 10-19 at the beautifully -restored Tower Theater.
