Chicago Film Producers Alliance (CFPA) http://www.screenmag.tv/feature.aspx?fid=2933 CFPA is a support and resource sharing group based in Chicago, Illinois. The mission of the group is to support and assist independent producers located in, committed to, and/or from the Midwest through the process of completing their films <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film> and obtaining distribution. The group is focused on helping its members successfully navigate the journey and overcome challenges and roadblocks encountered during the five major stages of film making: development, pre-production, production, post and distribution. The CFPA was founded to specifically address the needs of Executive Producers, Producers, Line Producers, Associate Producers, UPMs, Production Coordinators, Production Assistants, and Post Supervisors.[1] In 2003, a New York Times article <http://query.nytimes.com/gst/fullpage.html?res=9F07EFDB1138F93AA35757C0A9659C8B63> noted that with the move to the production and shooting of films in Canada and other countries, a practice known as "runaway productions," smaller film markets such as Chicago have been devastated. In 1999, Illinois was ranked as the third largest film market but by 2000 it had slipped to fifth in ranking, with seventy percent of the Illinois-based companies out of business, according to Screen Magazine <http://www.screenmag.com>.

Drew Turner, owner of AESOP pictures, founded Chicago Film Producers Alliance, believing that the strategy of intra-industry <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Film_industry> collaboration would enable local and midwest film producers to build their success on a foundation of support.
