nomorefrog™ AI Film Awards (NAIFA) is an international film festival established to celebrate and spotlight the future of AI-driven filmmaking. We welcome works that explore new possibilities in storytelling through artificial intelligence, emerging technologies, and innovative creative approaches.

From AI films and animation to experimental cinema, music videos, and visual art, we embrace bold and boundary-pushing projects that expand the language of moving images. NAIFA aims to connect filmmakers, artists, technologists, and creators from around the world who are shaping the next generation of visual storytelling.

Selected works will be recognized through Official Selection, Finalist, Winner, and the festival’s special distinction, the Pink Frog Award.

At NAIFA, we believe technology is not a replacement for creativity, but a new tool that expands the possibilities of human expression.

Jump Into A Wider World.
