Our May 2025 festival is going to be virtual.
New York Arts & Entertainment Film Festival (formerly NYC Popup Film Festival) celebrates quality independent films. Our goal is to bring quality short films to an audience and offer independent filmmakers a place to showcase their work. We also work to create network opportunities for future work to be created.
Short films of all genres are considered for Festival Screening.
Outstanding work will be awarded for Best Film, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Screenplay.
New York Arts & Entertainment Film Festival is a one day festival, that kicks off with a networking hour, followed by quality short films. We follow the films with a Q&A from the filmmakers and actors in attendance. Then follow the screenings with additional networking opportunity.
Winners will be awarded for Best Film, Best Actor, Best Actress, and Best Screenplay.
