Hey Stage 32 family, I’m an indie filmmaker currently locking in the Grand Jury panel for the inaugural DOCA Film Festival (running Nov 13, 2026 – Jan 1, 2027, in San Jose, CA), and I need a few awesome industry peers to help me judge. What the judging looks like (I strictly respect your time) I’ll only ask you to watch and score a curated shortlist of 3 to 5 short films in your category of expertise. A bit about the festival: I founded DOCA as an independent festival built around connecting filmmakers with massive audiences. What I can give you is massive appreciation and visibility: your bio and work will be highlighted across our official platforms to our massive holiday crowd, you’ll get an official IMDb festival juror credit, and if you’re locally in the Bay Area, VIP passes to the whole holiday lights experience are on me.
