The YoungCuts
Film Festival is looking for Great Short Films by the World's Best

Started in 2001
as the Toronto International Teen Film Festival, the festival changed
its name (and increased its age limit) in 2005 and moved to Montreal
in 2006.
Every year, the
festival selects it's Top 100 short films from more than a thousand
submissions from more than 30 countries.
We present
awards in multiple categories including the High Fidelity HDTV award
for Best Documentary, the Tribute.ca award for Best Canadian Film,
the EnPrimeur.ca award for Best Quebec Film, the MyFilmmaker.com
award for Best Short Short (film under 5 minutes) and the
TextbookVideos.com award for Best Educational Film amongst many other prizes.
Part of our
larger mandate is to find and create paying film projects for young
filmmakers, like the films we did for Canadian Heritage's Canada's
Got Treasures! project.We do this through our sister site
www.MyFilmmaker.com. If you need to hire a filmmaker or if you are a
filmmaker who needs to be hired, come give us a try!
