HISTORY:
The Seattle Area Filmmakers® (SAF) group was founded by Gina Lockhart, an independent filmmaker from the Seattle area. She was talking with a few of her close friends about starting up some sort of meeting so all Seattle area filmmakers can pool their talents together in creating projects that will help each other to have more experience and to support each other. Originally the idea turned towards a MySpace group in early 2008, which did not see much activity. Less than a year later, it was time to change gears and create real meetings where people met face to face and discuss their projects and needs.
