Independent Media Publications

The mission of Independent Media Publications is to inform, promote, encourage, and mobilize independent and grassroots media-makers.

The organization, a 501(c)(3) nonprofit organization, was started with the intent of rescuing, re-envisioning and re-launching the print publication, archival records, and online resources of The Independent Film & Video Monthly. The magazine had been a vital publication to the community of independent media-makers from 1978 through July 2006, at which point it ceased publication when its parent, a nonprofit organization called the Association of Independent Video and Filmmakers (AIVF), closed its doors.
