Exciting, creative content is more important to us than slick production values. With comedy, if you make them laugh, audiences won't care if you filmed your masterpiece on your uncle the swinger's 1980s video camera.
London and the UK has a long, illustrious history of comedy from The Canterbury Tales to Monty Python. It is also a global centre for production companies and talent agencies that are looking for new talent to provide comedy content for the ever expanding market of online entertainment, digital content marketing and advertising. We have a database of these companies and agencies and update them about the talented filmmakers participating in our festival.
Most importantly though, the films we screen aim to entertain our festival audiences so we have some important criteria for the films we show:
GET TO THE FUNNY BITS QUICKLY.
BE ORIGINAL AND AVOID CLICHES.
"Brevity is the soul of wit" William Shakespeare
(and he knows better than us because he wore tights)
Being able to share great, undiscovered comedy films is a real buzz and delight for us and our festival is an essential calendar feature both for audiences wishing to have some great nights of laughter and for the discovery of new comedy creators.
All participants in our festival (if they wish) will have their contact details along with their film details made available to our industry database.

Charlie Chaplin Comedy Film Festival
The Charlie Chaplin Comedy Film Festival honours the pioneering spirit of a great film maker and advocate for social change.
We are delighted to be holding the fifth annual CCCFF in August 2015 in the beautiful village of Waterville on the Ring of Kerry in the South West of Ireland. The festival includes a hugely entertaining range of events, screenings, workshops and Chaplin themed street entertainment and much, much more. Waterville extends a very warm welcome to you all.
Фестиваль «Mostra Curta Vazantes: кино в сообществе» призван способствовать интеграции и социальному и культурному развитию жителей общины Вазантес, округа Аракояба, Сеара (Бразилия) и соседних городов посредством выставки фильмов, снятых в любой точке мира. Мир с целью понимания, наблюдения и освещения социальных и культурных процессов, происходящих как на юге, так и на севере планеты.
KloosterKino is the place to be for animated shorts in Nijmegen, the Netherlands. Three times a year we show the best animated shorts from all over the world in a friendly setting. The screenings take place in a historic cloister, which dates back to 1909, and are not subject to admission.
KloosterKino shows work by young filmmakers, but also pays attention to classic animated film. Throughout the year we also work with other festivals and cultural organizations to arrange screenings of animated shorts.
But why animated shorts? Well, first of all, because we love them! But also because too few animated shorts are shown theatrically in the Netherlands. KloosterKino wants to show animation in all its diversity: from stop-motion to CGI, from narrative to abstract, homegrown and from far away. In doing so, we hope to aid in the diffusion of the artistic animated short.
We intend to be an alternative to the larger animation festivals by offering screenings which are both accessible and challenging. We stand for high quality animated film in welcoming surroundings. Our target audience is not just the animation aficionado, but also those who normally don’t watch animation, but are open to a surprising and stimulating program of films.
KloosterKino is a nonprofit foundation, that depends on volunteers and gifts.
Фестиваль Cryptshow — это инициатива, пропагандирующая жанр фэнтези и террор. Каждый июль наполняйте Бадалону зомби, пришельцев, вампиров и самых известных серийных убийц. И к большому ужасу... ужас!
Основанный в 1980 году, наш фестиваль, первый в своей категории в Южной Корее, вырос и превратился из Корейского фестиваля короткометражных фильмов в Пусанский фестиваль короткометражных фильмов в 2000 году и, в конечном итоге, в Пусанский международный фестиваль короткометражных фильмов в 2010 году (www.bisff.org).
Выставка BISFF, которая состоится в конце апреля в Пусанском киноцентре, вручает дюжину наград в трех конкурсных разделах (Международный конкурс, Корейский конкурс и Операция «Кино»), а также представляет несколько специально отобранных неконкурсных секций, в том числе «Страна гостей», «Корейские короткометражные фильмы», «Азиатские короткометражные фильмы», «Призма», «3D-кино» и т. д.
BISFF является членом Конференции по короткометражным фильмам (http://shortfilmconference.com/) и NETPAC (Сеть по продвижению кинематографа Азиатско-Тихоокеанского региона https://netpacasia.org). В 2018 году фестиваль стал первым фестивалем в Южной Корее, удостоенным премии «Оскар®».
