Meet filmmakers in person at the Red Carpet, Awards Ceremony and Q&A after screenings. We’ll present local, national and international productions. Enjoy premieres and AWARD winning films previously screened at other famous film festivals around the world. Comedies, dramas, animations, you name it.

Our festival has made a commitment to the community and environment.
This year we have chosen to support CAPE (Center For Animal Protection & Education), Free Arts for Abused Children and Local Animal Shelter in Burbank, CA by directly donating 10% of all festival ticket and t-shirt sales.

    We were so proud that LA Short Film & Script Festival premiered our Film “Down The Rabbit Hole” a wonderful and well organized festival. We will always remember this festival, and the excitement it brought to our film making journey. So cool.

    This festival was lovely. They were in constant communication, allowing as many of the cast and crew to be present. Very nice and supportive people.
