About the festival

The Western Smartphone Film Festival is a student-run organization here at Western University focused on developing youth in the field of film and entertainment by means of an annual smartphone short film festival. With a focus on inclusivity and garnishing Canada's diverse and talented student population, we use the smartphone as a platform to allow a broad range of students to explore their creativity and further fuel their passion for the arts.

Mission

First prize: $500. Other prizes are given to the top 10 filmmakers including prize packages from our sponsors and tickets to movie premieres.
