The 2004 gate is open!
The Student Shorts Film Festival 2009
Student Shorts is a Toronto-based film festival exclusive to post secondary institutions from across Canada and around the world.

Our aim is to provide a forum where young filmmakers can showcase their work to their peers, the industry and the public.

We are now entering our 9th year, and with over 400 submissions a year have become the largest festival of this kind in North America. Need more info? Explore the site!

Hello,

It is with mixed emotions that we announce that after eight years we have decided to end the Student Shorts Film Festival. It was a fantastic experience and we have loved every minute of it but we feel it has run its course. The festival required hundreds of hours of volunteer work between Iain, Alex and myself. Hours which we no longer have available. Furthermore, when we began Student Shorts it was the only festival of its kind in North America. Since its inception, it has spawned other student festivals, which we hope will be able to provide a similar forum to that of SSFF.

We would like to thank everyone who has supported the festival over its 8 years of life. It would – of course – not have been possible without your help.

We would also like to say that we are not turning our backs on film festivals for good and would be happy to hear about opportunities within the film festival community where we might be able to lend a hand given our past experience with Student Shorts.

Again, thank you for your support.

All the best,
Erin Tee
