Austin Film Festival’s 32nd Annual Film and Screenplay Competitions are open for Submissions.
Known as the “Writers Festival” since its inception 31 years ago, Austin Film Festival recognizes the importance of narrative at the core of filmmaking. By celebrating the work of storytellers - those committed to crafting intricate worlds, fully-formed characters, and diverse perspectives - AFF bolsters its reputation as a champion for the creator.
Helping champion emerging storytellers into the spotlight- their Film Competitions offer opportunities for both short and feature Narrative and Documentary work, Digital Series, Student Shorts, and more. Have a Feature or Short screenplay? Maybe a Pilot, TV Spec, or Scripted Podcast? Share your work in their Screenplay competition and get feedback from industry professionals.
Austin Film Festival has offered our WIFT NZ members discounts for Film entrants, and Screenplay entrants. Email the WIFT NZ (office@wiftnz.org.nz) office to receive a discount code.
