With unwavering support from our community, Film Industry Watch has established a $24,500 Source Protection Fund to support individuals who come forward with information about corruption and misconduct in the film industry.
How the fund works
All submissions undergo independent editorial verification before any consideration for compensation. A financial contribution of $100–$5,000 may be made to a source only after a report has been independently verified, edited, and published on this website. Compensation reflects the documented personal or professional risk taken by the source, not the tip itself. We do not pay for unverified allegations.
We hold a special focus on Film Festivals, Screenwriting Labs, various awards, and public Film Funds. It’s important to remind our readers that these entities are predominantly supported by public funding, which necessitates a standard of fairness and transparency in their operations.
How to contact us safely
To send an email anonymously, you’ll need to use methods that hide your identity and don’t link back to your personal information. One common approach is to use a secure, anonymous email service like ProtonMail or Tutanota, which prioritize privacy and don’t require personal information for account creation. Alternatively, you can create a new email account with a generic email service like Gmail or Yahoo, but make sure to use fictitious personal details during the sign-up process.
Stand with us in our quest for integrity in the film industry – your voice matters.
