LAS CRUCES, NM (AP) — A New Mexico State University graduate is developing a networking app that will allow like-minded filmmakers to find each other in their cities.
Jared Ortega says he created the app, called "FilmCrU," to address the lack of networking resources for aspiring filmmakers.
Ortega designed the app to show the profiles of other filmmakers living within a 20-mile radius of the user's location.
The NMSU Department of Individualized Studies graduate says the app will allow a user to create a profile that includes their personal bio, links to portfolios, pictures and equipment lists. Once a profile is created, users can start looking for other filmmakers in their area.
