Diliana Alexander
Executive Director
FilmGate Interactive

I am an interactive and traditional producer/director, who hails from Toronto, Canada and now lives in Miami, Florida.

In 2012, I co-founded FilmGate Miami, a not-for-profit production studio, supporting innovative storytellers who craft independent narratives.

I am also the Executive Director of the annual FilmGate Interactive, the first festival in the U.S. to solely showcase interactive and immersive stories, as well as the technology that supports them.

In 2017, I co-founded the Downtown Media Center, a co-working space for media related businesses, where we have created a co-shared economy designed to support your business and enable and teach visual storytelling. We host pitch sessions, workshops, panels, interactive screenings, immersive experiences and networking events.

Experienced speaker and festival organizer, I am also a visiting professor at Florida International University and Broward College.
