We have been running since 2016, now happy to be on FilmFreeway. We are committed to the future of humanity through Science Fiction and Science-based documentaries. We honour those who are committed to creating visions and concepts that inspire future generations. We also are very welcoming to horror and fantasy films under our leviathan category
The Los Angeles Science Fiction Film Festival is open entrants from all over the world. Based in the film industry capital of the world, we endeavour to showcase the great talent in both the Science Fiction and Horror genres.
We are honestly located in Agoura Hills California. We TRULY love Sci-Fi, and are also VERY partial to Horror, Art, Films, and pretty much any film you wish to enter. We won't reject you if your film is not straight Sci-Fi, but that is our first love. Political-style documentaries are also exciting to us.
Though we are in Los Angeles County, we are also very active in Ventura County (adjoins Los Angeles). Some of our staff have re-located to Ventura in recent times, following the Covid outbreak.
The event is held once a year. The exact location may vary because, as Theaters close across California, we are always seeking novel solutions to the upcoming event.
We have award prizes that are Bronze, Silver, Gold, and the Grand Jury Prize.
Gold Silver and Bronze Digital Award certificates are given out at the end of each quarter. This is decided by a panel of 5 judges. These awards are Imdb eligible.
In the final month before the main event, a group of 7 judges go over all the award winning entires and chose the Best to win the Grand Jury Prize for the year. Even if you only won bronze, you are still eligible for the Grand Jury Prize. As the judges are entirely different, you are still equally in the running for the Grand Jury Prizes, so don’t despair if you only get bronze, and don’t be too hopeful if you have a Gold Award.
All winners are welcome to order trophies at anytime for a low fee. We make a 10% mark-up on the base cost of the trophies (physical costs, printing, postage and staff cost), so please understand we offer this as a service to you.
