2021 Newark Short Film Awards
In-person
Hosted by Gallery Aferro
Curated by I'm So Newark
The Newark Short Film Awards (NSFA) film festival is about the filmmaker and the collaboration of filmmaking. And this year, it will be one of the featured events of the Newark Arts Festival and hosted by Gallery Aferro, located in the heart of Newark’s downtown district.
Taking place on October 8th – 9th, the film festival is designed to strengthen filmmakers with tools to take them to the next level while celebrating their works in the process. Films will be presented in the following category blocks:
- Short Documentary
- Short Narrative
- Short Comedy
- Short Student Film
The festival will also include actor and filmmaking workshops to help prepare up-and-coming artists for what’s ahead in an ever-changing industry, a headshot/portrait studio session to aid creative professionals in putting their best foot forward, and a networking event to provide an opportunity to share information and promote individual specialties within the film industry.
The NSFA is designed for all artists interested in creating and working in the filmmaking industry and movie lovers alike. So join us for two days of short film screenings, art creations, professional portraits, headshots, networking, an awards show, and more.
If you would like to attend the Newark Short Film Awards, please register at filmfreeway.com/shortff. The event is free, but all guests must register to attend.
