Edinburgh Film Festival

The Edinburgh film festival was founded in 1947 in Edinburgh Scotland. It consists of 12 days in the month of June, hosting premieres, special events and parties. Films are chosen for awards, and some of the award categories are purely for short films, for example UK film council award for best British short, and best international short film. Being one of the biggest film festivals in Britain, it would be quite an accomplishment for any short film director to have their work shown. Some of the previous short film winners at the Edinburgh film festival are “After tomorrow directed by Emma Sullivan” and “Princess Margaret BLVD directed Kazik Radwanski”. To submit your work to the festival, all you have to do is fill in an online form and pay a fee and then post your DVD to hit one of the deadlines. This means that anyone can have a chance of being up for an award at the festival.
