About the festival

Crescent City Film Festival is a three-day, student-run event focused on providing a stepping stone for new and emerging voices. Last year, we focused our efforts toward local Louisiana filmmakers and artists. This year the CCFF will be opening up its submissions to America’s southern region and Puerto Rico. We accept work from Mississippi, Alabama, Florida, Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina, South Carolina, Texas, Puerto Rico, Louisiana, Arkansas, Virginia, West Virginia, Oklahoma, and Kentucky. Crescent City strives to create an inclusive and welcoming community for creators to share their talents and foster lasting connections. Both students and non-students are encouraged to submit their work. The event will take place in late-April and feature a small group of jurors.

Awards will be given by audience choice and festival jury.
