The Love Your Shorts Film Festival is held in Sanford, Florida, a community that embraces the arts.

The festival is open to novice and veteran filmmakers, both amateur and professional in all categories. The event showcases films of up to 30 minutes.

Over the course of three days, participants and audience members will be able to see numerous short films divided by category and attend discussion sessions with filmmakers and professionals.  Meanwhile, filmmakers will showcase their creations and compete for cash prizes.

Sanford – right outside of emerging film hub, Orlando, FL – features a downtown cultural corridor, numerous art galleries, a city-sponsored jazz concert, movies in the park, an active community-theater troupe, and other art activities and events.
