Judging
The Canberra Short Film Festival has a three tiered judging system, so the winner of Best Film in each category must have a wide appeal – to industry judges and audience. Where there is a judging panel, they are guided to choose films that have a ‘good story, well told'.
Stage 1: Preliminary
Films are screened to a panel of preliminary judges who create a short-list of 100 minutes of films in each competition category. There are three people on each panel and one panel per category.
Stage 2: Audience
These short-listed films are then screened to audiences over the duration of the festival. The audiences will be given the opportunity to vote for their favourite films from the short-list in each category.
Stage 3: Finals
The top three films as voted by the audience in each category are then screened in a finals sessions to a panel of industry judges, who will decide the best film in each category.
