In 2022 the IFAFF screened on-line with 103 films from 23 countries, with the hope of a hybrid in 2023, of both physical and on-line, however it will now be on-line only for 2023. With the possibility of only the winners being in person at a later date.
The International Fine Arts Film Festival is a boutique festival that premiered in Santa Barbara, California in 2010; it then occurred as a film festival in Venice, CA in 2015. In 2016 it exploded as an International Fine Arts Film Festival full of shorts and special features back in fabulous Santa Barbara, California! Today it runs as a top boutique film festival internationally.
Originally conceived as a festival of films about the visual fine arts, documentaries about aritsts, it now incorporates dance and experimental art forms and approaches, including animation. Original Score is also an important component; if there is a score just composed for your film, it may automatically be judged, if the credits say Original Score. MUST SAY ORIGINAL SCORE.
Seeking a vision that will demonstrate the collaborative nature of the arts, it is the festival's hope to continue that collaboration. The festival in2022 will be totally unique and deliciously awesome on-line.
