What started as a celebration of short film grew into a community of film lovers and filmmakers. Sunday Shorts began in 2019. We put things on pause for the pandemic and now, are looking forward to returning to celebrate a brand new batch of filmmakers in 2022. A short film celebration that hopes to shine a light on a lot of a few new up and comers and help them garner the attention they deserve.
Sunday Shorts is an IMDB-Qualifying fest, meaning your awards will go up on IMDB as part of your film page. We have a few thousand in cash prizes and $2500 in film equipment/rentals and a streaming/licensing deal to give away.
Sunday At The Park with Shorts is what we call our live in person screening at The Park Theatre. A light, fun Sunday afternoon vibe of an event. Make connections with talent and judges and also build a network for future projects, all in a super relaxed no-pressure atmosphere in one of Vancouver's most historic theatres.
Our first round judges are all avid-movie goers and film lovers from all walks of life. They will narrow the choices and then our Industry Judges will make the final selections and award the prizes. Among our Industry Judges are weighted professionals in all departments of the film industry and we even boast an Oscar winner on the panel. Judges for each year will be announced when submission begin.
