The South Florida Student Film Festival (SFSFF), open to high school students around the state of Florida, is an organization founded by students designed to bring about awareness concerning the art of student filmmaking. SFSFF shines a positive light upon Middle & High School students who love the beauty of motion pictures.

Being students ourselves, we know that WE are the next generation of filmmakers. With it, we usher in endless possibilities of what the public sees on the screen and endless possibilities of how to change the landscape of film forever. The South Florida Student Film Festival is a place for YOU to express yourself and your creativity and maybe even earn the opportunity to have your short film, documentary, or experimental film played on the big screen! In addition, you have the opportunity to win great prizes, meet industry professionals and other student filmmakers, and learn how to make better films!

What makes us different? We were created and are completely run by students.

We can't wait to watch your movie!

Awards and prizes will be announced on our website and here soon!

    Wonderful festival! What these students are doing is phenomenal! We need more just like this. The communication and hospitality were perfect. The pizza and drinks before the festival was a very nice touch. I hope they continue to do this festival every year!
