London Short Film Festival

The London Short Film Festival is London's most expensive and biggest film festivals. It came back for ten days, in ten well known venues in January 2010.It attracted more submissions and people attending then ever before! With over 200 short films it has made it's name for having the most exclusive up and coming film makers showcase their work. This short film festival first began in 2003 when Philip Ilson and Kate Taylor decided that they were going to do a short Halloween festival. Like many other establishers of festivals they decided to create a bigger festival because of the popularity of this one and in 2008 it became The London Short Film Festival and has been expanded ever since. In 2010 London Short Film Festival and Shooting People got together to help UK film makers. This enabled first time film makers and those that had done several short films already to gain experience. Highlights to this transformative training day included BAFTA-winning screenwriter Tony Grisoni, SLUMDOG MILLIONAIRE editor Chris Dickie and acclaimed cinematographer John de Borman attending and getting actively involved.
