The Independent Film Quarterly magazine (IFQ) together with Independent movie distribution company ITN organized the New York International Independent Film and Video Festival between 1993 and 2013. The IFQ magazine was closed in December 2015.
Festival
The New York International Independent Film and Video Festival was a film, music, and art series of events at various American cities, founded in 1993. The festival also ran a parallel event titled Independent Film Quarterly Film & Webisode Festival during its last four years.
The festival struggled with public perception and attendance. It was criticized by The Village Voice in 1997, and IndieWire in 1999, for its open policy of accepting nearly every submission, as well as its $300 entry fee. The Internet Movie Database felt that it did not meet the website's criteria for inclusion and stopped documenting festival entries in 2006, only listing award winners until 2013.

Stacy Nicole Offenberger (born 1979) is an American TV Host, model and beauty pageant titleholder who has competed in the Miss Teen USA and Miss USA pageants.
Offenberger won her first USA pageant title in 1997 when she became Miss Ohio Teen USA 1998. She later competed in the
Miss Teen USA 1998 pageant held in Shreveport, Louisiana but did not place. The pageant was won by Vanessa Minnillo of South Carolina.
Eight years after giving up her Teen title, Offenberger won the Miss Ohio USA 2006 title in Portsmouth in July 2006 on her third try. She had competed for the title in both the 2005 and 2004 pageants, and finished third runner-up on each occasion.
Offenberger represented Ohio in the Miss USA 2006 pageant held on April 21, 2006 in Baltimore, Maryland, and competed alongside five other former Miss Teen USA delegates. She placed third runner-up to Tara Conner of Kentucky. It was Ohio's highest placement since Halle Berry was first runner-up in 1986, and coincidentally twenty years since that occasion. Of the six former Miss Teens USA delegates competing, three made it to the top five. Offenberger was joined by Miss Kentucky Teen USA 2002 and soon-to-be Miss USA Tara Conner, and former Miss Florida Teen USA 1998 and eventual fourth runner-up Cristin Duren.
Offenberger graduated from Warren Local High School in 1998 and then attended Marshall University, Ohio University, and Columbus State Community College. She is working on an associate degree in counseling. Her ambition is to operate a chemical dependency rehabilitation center.
Her interests include water sports, shopping, reality TV, snow skiing, camping and fishing.
