Be a part of Sac's Most Dynamic Creative Collabo!
The SYNERGY CHALLENGE is a collabo lab where designers, models and filmmakers unite to redefine the FASHION FILM. More than just a competition the SYNERGY CHALLENGE is a platform for you to Unmute Your creative brand.
What is the Synergy Challenge?
F.O.F. is challenging local creators to blend high fashion artistry with cinematic storytelling. The idea is to produce bold, innovative short films for the main FASHION ON FILM event held during the Sacramento Film Festival, Summer 2026.
What is the shoot Day Event?
On April 25th, participating designers, cosmetologists, and models will presented their work at the Cast and Crew Call event. Filmmakers and photographers were invited to show their work as well. So if you are wanting to produce a film, sign up above and we'll do our best to pair you with a team for a May 9th shoot date. This is not the only opportunity to make a film but it could be the day YOU come together with us to make history!
What happens on May 9th:
This is a one day shooting event incorporating the teams comprised of filmmakers, photographers, fashion designers, models and creatives! The goal is to get a film shot and in the can in just one day! Created teams will have 6 hours to shoot short films using the Reunion Underground and beautiful Old Sac surroundings as their backdrop.
From there, team leaders will have 1 month to shoot and edit the project into a final film. Films will be delivered via email to the festival director by Sunday June the 9th. All films must be no longer than 4 minutes in length and may contain music and Old Sacramento background and/or the Reunion Underground as a background from our shoot day. In essence, these are short music videos where..."The Frame Is Your Runway."
This is a community event. Noone is paid. The point is to create SYNERGY by finding teams that will come together! It's your time! Own the Screen. Own the Scene!
Cinematic Style, 2026. Let's Collaborate!
Each synergy Challenge team leader will submit their final product. only the best of the best will make it to a WORLD PREMIERE at The Sacramento International film festival later this summer. Teams compete for $1k grand prize! Selected films will be part of the FOF LIVE event in August as part of the 31st SacFilmFest!
