We, at San Diego Filipino Cinema, are incredibly grateful to the California Film Commission () for their grant nomination and award through “The Shards” Season 1 program, as well as to the Nemeth Foundation for their generous grant award this year.

Their support helps us continue empowering emerging filmmakers and creative collaborators through workshops, mentorship, and industry conversations for film career readiness and community building.

We’re honored to keep growing alongside organizations that believe in the power of storytelling and the next generation of creatives in San Diego and beyond.

If you’re an aspiring film creative looking to build new skills, or a filmmaker hoping to make meaningful connections, stay tuned for our upcoming program announcements!

🌟 AUTHOR SPOTLIGHT: BOBBIE PEYTON 🌟

We are so excited to feature Bobbie Peyton, the award-winning author of Dancing the Tinikling (winner of the 2023 Oregon Spirit Award)! 🇵🇭✨ Born in the Philippines and holding an M.F.A. from Hamline University, Bobbie brings heart and authenticity to children's literature. When she’s not writing or birding, she’s busy keeping up with her two "ferocious" small dogs in Oregon!

Come meet Bobbie and hear the story behind her celebrated work at our upcoming event.
