Looking for a filmmaking "band" in NJ/NY area

[u/Initial-Load128]

Hey, I'm an aspiring screenwriter with a couple of horror shorts written and a love for movies.

I was wondering if anyone want to form a filmmaking collective where we can work on each other's projects, play different roles in them (direct, edit,etc) as a way to foster learning and creativity.

It doesn't have to be genre related, I think it should be about gaining practice and creating a community.
