Committed Christians in film, television, graphic arts and new media from all across Europe, sharing our experiences and encouraging one another. Some of us work strictly in the secular world as writers, producer, directors, cameramen, web designers, and the like; others are serving in the religious field.
All of us are actively seeking how to better point our largely secularised societies to the Way, the Truth and the Life, also incarnationally to the people we live and work amongst.
CEVMA, the Christian European Visual Media Association, was founded in 1981 by Christian media professionals. Since then we've held annual conferences - each mid-September, and in a different European country - to exchange thoughts, ideas and to sharpen our Christian vision for the media.
Those who attend the annual conferences also receive our in-depth periodical, "CEVMA News".

Annual CEVMA Conference
Each annual meeting is organised by visual media professionals sharing the vision of CEVMA in the country where the conference is to take place. We rotate between different countries but always try to find venues easy and not-too-expensive to get to for people coming from far away. By the way, not only people from Europe are members of the "CEVMA family"; we often welcome people from Africa, the Middle East, North America, Australasia and other lands at our meetings.
These annual get-togethers always include a series of Bible talks where the speaker(s) attempt to cater to our needs and challenges as media professionals, and each day includes a prayer and worship time too, in order to 'tank up on grace' and to receive mutual encouragement for the work each of us believe we are called to do.
During our 3 to 4 days together, there are also media workshops, topical discussions, and lots of informational sessions where we update each other on the work we are doing. Every even year (2004, 2006, 2008, etc.) there is also a film festival where people present their productions in friendly competition. CEVMA awards are presented for the different kinds of productions (feature film, documentaries, children/youth, shorts, etc.)
