For all my sisters who like to do short flims(other than porn!): Ok, before I post the call for submissions, just an extra tidbit: I know this is an web board for a adult content, but the submissions should not feature adult content unless used for artistic purposes(you know what I mean)
Let me know if you have any questions:

artists, including comedy, dramedy, drama, experimental, animation, and
more!

Who are we?
Trans/Giving is a unique, award-winning series that showcases the
immense talent of transgender, genderqueer, and intersex artists in Los
Angeles and from around the world. Trans/Giving functions as both a
showcase for experienced artists as well as a space to explore for
those who are new to performing. We are a space where people from many
different communities and backgrounds can connect and share their
talents. While some of our past artists have addressed gender issues
directly, this is by no means a requirement -- we are interested in
sharing the best work of all members of our communities, whatever the
theme. Trans/Giving believes that the strongest statement we can make
as artists is simply through our art.
