Join us in making the Miami
International Science Fiction Film Festival one of the most exciting festivals
in Florida
Miami, FL – November 11, 2014 –
The founding members of MiSciFi (Miami International Science Fiction Film
Festival ) have been film-makers for some time.
It has been a long trek, their biggest recognition came with the
documentary Journey to Planet X, which has been called a "love letter to
science fiction", a film that highlight our passion in the creation of
fantastic film. They've had the
wonderful opportunity to attend numerous festivals all over the world. During that time they've reflected on how
nice would it be if the Florida community had a festival specifically featuring
fantastic films. They invited their
close friend Edward Figueroa, who has been working closely with them for some
years now as a DP, and created our incredible team. Each of the MiSciFi founders are scientists,
passionately driven to explore all things science, fact and fiction. They
support and inspire the local film community through their own film-making.
They are fortunate to be aligned with Big Blue & You a 501(c)(3)
non-profit dedicated to inspiring and educating youth about marine conservation
through arts and media. MiSciFi believes
individual environmental stewardship is cultivated through education, art,
film, communication, leadership, and service to the community, which will
ultimately spur environmental advocacy on a global level. All contributions to
this festival are tax deductible.
To date, there has been a lack of science fiction in the state of
Florida and a big desire to showcase all the work that is out there, and
MiSciFi believes that creating this festival will help to fulfill that desire.
With your help, they can make this film festival a strong and vibrant new start
for the South Florida community.

About the Miami International
Science Fiction Film Festival
The MiSciFi founding members have worked together on science-fiction
themed independent film projects for years. We have attended sci-fi film
festivals as far away as Europe, but have noted a lack of more local festivals
that cater to this interest. To remedy this, we have formed the Miami
International Science Fiction Film Festival, a forum for inventive and
imaginative filmmakers from all over to come and showcase their work. All of us
in MiSciFi work in scientific fields, and greatly respect those that want to
tell a story that takes science a step beyond.
The intent of MiSciFi is to showcase the best in Science Fiction,
Horror, Fantasy, and other science-themed films from around the world. This
jubilee is set in the trendy yet enticingly diverse metropolis of Miami,
Florida and is being hosted in the luxurious Hyatt located in downtown Miami.
Our inspirational environment is ideal to explore films that ponder the
infinite possibilities our universe holds. Miami is already an international
hub for many things, we intend to make it an international hub for fantastic
films as well.
