Friday August 22nd Screening
We Like ‘Em Short Film Festival celebrates Animation and Comedic short films. We provide a platform for independent filmmakers, seasoned and emerging, to share their talent. This festival seeks original, entertaining animated and comedy shorts from around the world.
We Like ‘Em Short allows aspiring and professional filmmakers the chance to show their films in beautiful Baker City, a small community known for embracing the arts.
WLES was started in 2010 as a very small local festival featuring local and American filmmakers. In 2012 we began taking submissions online and thanks to that change, we’ve screened films from all over the world while still priding ourselves as a festival that showcases local and regional filmmakers.
WLES has seen it’s share of international award winning shorts and hosted talented directors including Joan Gratz, Jim Blashfield. Mark Gustafson, Chel White, Paul Harrod, Doug Lussenhop, and Joanna Priestly in recent editions of this three day festival. WLES is centrally located at the historic Churchill School in Baker City, OR.
