Award/Closing Night Event: 11th Annual Shortcut 100 Costume Film Festival: Halloween Edition
The Shortcut 100 International Film Festival is an annual showcase dedicated to promoting the best in independent short film from both established and emerging filmmakers.
***This year, we're thrilled to invite you to our Award/Closing Night Reception with a twist... A COSTUME PARTY***
For the same amount of time as an average feature film (around 100 minutes) we offer our in-person and online audience access to the up-and-coming voices and unique artistic visions of independent cinema from around the world. Based in Chicago and presented by Pixquid®, every year features an opening program online at pixquid.com and a red carpet closing night reception in-person, with awards chosen by both online and in-person audience and an after party with filmmakers in attendance.
The program includes:
6:30pm - Costume Award/Closing Night Reception begins
7pm - Door opens for seating with opening remarks
7:30pm - Screening of nominated films begins
9:15pm - Q&A with filmmakers in attendance and voting
9:30pm - Winner Announcements
After party - TBA
Dress to celebrate. Bring good vibes. Love is all we need.
Here's how it works: Same as last year, we will proudly open our program online at Pixquid.com! The online audience votes starting on October 18 will determine the top 6-8 short films to be screened in-person at our closing night on November 2 at Facets. The winner of each category will have an opportunity to distribute their award winning short films on the platform. All official selections will automatically be entered for distribution consideration.
