Researching Short Film Promotion

Find out about the role of film festivals in introducting short films and their makers to critics and audiences.


A short film festival is a festival for short film makers to submit their work and reach a wider range of audience. It also helps emerging film makers get noticed for their work. 



The top 5 most submitted film festival are:

  1. Sundance Film Festival (USA)
  2. Cannes Film Festival (France)
  3. Palm Springs International Festival of Short Films (USA)
  4. Clermont-Ferrand International Short Film Festival (France)
  5. Aspen Shortfest (USA)


But short film makers don't go straight to short film festivals they go through a website called Vimeo who get sent in short films and have critics who view each short film and then publish them onto their website. The short films can then be put forward to short films afterwards. Whatever happens the short films get viewed and the film makers gets recognition.
