We Love FILm…
And if you're here, you do too.
We're all about showcasing and celebrating you, the filmmaker.
Your craft, your style, your world - YOU!
Best Shot Film Festival is designed for you to submit your best films for critique and competition, in a live-screened and live-streamed event. No theme rules, no category restrictions and any film can win. All we want is your best filmmaking effort.
We’ve all been there: you’ve made some amazing stuff, but it just hasn’t found the success you were hoping for. That’s where we come in! Submit your best films - from the 2026 calendar year, or from your back catalogue - for judging with clear criteria that appraises any type of film. Any genre, any style, and any length 10 minutes or under. This isn’t just your second shot, it’s your BEST SHOT!
