LOS ANGELES, CA / ACCESSWIRE / July 28, 2021 / Cinedigm, the leading independent streaming entertainment company super-serving enthusiast fan bases, announced today that the Company's SVOD streaming service Fandor will be a sponsor at the 2021 North Fork TV Festival.
A celebration of independent scripted television and a champion in the elevation of independent creators, Fandor's sponsorship of the North Fork TV Festival, Aug. 4-6, marks the first in a series of upcoming festivals the Company will attend since its acquisition by Cinedigm in January 2021.
Fandor will be joined by key members of the entertainment industry, including Grammy and Emmy award-winning songwriter/composer and original cast member of the hit Broadway musical Hamilton, Christopher Jackson, who will receive the North Fork TV Festival's The Ambassador of the Arts Award. Tony Award winner and celebrated television actress Patina Miller will also be honored with the 2021 Inspiration Award.
"We are thrilled to be a sponsor at the North Fork TV Festival and engage with the independent entertainment community in-person," said Phil Hopkins, President of Fandor, "The Festival's dedication to emerging creators aligns perfectly with Fandor's mission to elevate voices in film and television and represents an opportunity to further heighten the work of the industry's most exciting creators."
Fandor's participation in the North Fork TV Festival is the latest in a series of strategic expansions by the service, most notably the upcoming relaunch of the Fandor app and the return of Fandor's digital publication Keyframe, coming later this summer.
The Fandor channel on Amazon Prime reports continued success, bringing independent films to 60,000+ subscribers, including upcoming New to Fandor arrivals.
