In FilmFest we find it important to show a variety of films so as to inspire viewers. A lot of festivals show only a few generation of films and are strict about the format of the video. We believe this only keeps us in a box where we don't easily get inspired.
Motivation is what gave birth to the medium we lovingly call film and it's what keeps us making more films . There have been numerous inspired filmmaking styles and techniques over the decades to keep with the times and to make use of new technology tools.
It is a great joy to be able to inspire others to follow in our footsteps by joining our filmiest community. With a little filmmaking talent we can use our films to inspire the next generation to make more films.
Whether your film is a drama, comedy, animation, stop-motion, documentary, experimental, music video or something else, we'd like you to submit your entries in our film festival and join our FilmFest community.
Reputation is important to every filmmaker. We've created this film festival with that in mind. We also offer award , certificate, png laurels, newsletter mentions and reviews for selected films.
