ABOUT THE FESTIVAL
High Vis is a short film festival showcasing BIPOC cyclists and their stories Co-Produced by Courtney Williams of The Brown Bike Girl Consulting, the People’s Bike Mayor of New York City in conjunction with Filmed by Bike.
Saturday, October 3
6:00-8:00 pm – Pacific Time
A YouTube Livestream Event – Watch Live or Later
Here at Filmed by Bike, we spend eight months of the year connecting with our global community of filmmakers and scouring the internet and social media for interesting independent bicycle films. Every year, we showcase the best of those films at our signature annual film festival.
We hope that by shining a light on these great films by Black, Indigenous and all People of Color we can inspire other people to tell their bicycle stories. But we also recognize that there are many barriers to producing a film. That’s why we’ve launched our BIPOC Filmmaker Grant, Presented by Machines for Freedom that will provide cash grants to Black, Indigenous and People of Color who are emerging filmmakers.

ABOUT FILMED BY BIKE
Filmed by Bike is a film festival that features the world’s best bike movies. The festival brings together a wildly diverse collection of films that inspire and delight. Every May Filmed by Bike hosts an extensive film festival weekend in their hometown of Portland, Oregon with more than 70 films, six movie programs, bike rides, visiting filmmakers, parties and more.
After the Portland festival wraps up, Filmed by Bike sends their movie collections on the road to more than 40 tour stops every year. These touring shows are strengthening bike communities and helping organizations fundraiser for impactful projects.
The Festival Team and annual jury panel spends eight months of the year searching for diverse films and screening submissions. We wish there were more films that share the bicycle stories of Black, Indigenous and All People of Color, which is why we’ve launched a new BIPOC Filmmaker Grant Program to award cash grants to emerging filmmakers.
