At Short Film Central, you can find all you need to know about the latest and greatest short films, the people who make them and the events which screen them, all in one place.

Register for a free account now to add your event profile, and announce your call for entries.

You can edit your own event profile, including a description of your event, contact details and a link to your website. For each edition of your event, you can enter the dates and details so short film fans can plan their visit, and preview the history of your event.

Where better to announce your event to short-filmmakers? When you enter the film entry requirements for your next edition, filmmakers will automatically see your event on a list of upcoming events which their film may be eligible for. In the same way, you can identify films to invite to your event.

Call for entries

By the time your event starts, the film information provided to you with the entry form can be months old. On Short Film Central, filmmakers can update their own film profiles, so you can get all the latest information to include in your catalog. If you would like to save time on data entry, we can provide you with the latest details when you need them in a variety of formats.

You can submit all the latest news about your event, including announcements of your awards and selected films, upcoming dates or any other news relevant to the short film community. Our visitors can be notified when short films are screening at your next event in our email newsletter.

Consider using our Make-Your-Own Compilation DVD system to create a DVD of some of the best films from your event, and customize it with your festival name or logo. Save on the cost of organizing and authoring your own DVD, and reward the filmmakers who entertained your audience, while you promote your event.
