WINNERS - 2018


CONGRATULATIONS TO OUR 2018 WINNERS
We had an overwhelming response of over 250 entries for our first year, and judging was no easy task. The amount of talent and hard work that has been placed on these projects is truly inspiring. Each and every one of you should be very proud of your accomplishments, as we know that creating a film is no easy feat, and it truly takes a lot of hands behind the scenes and in front of the camera to pull off a successful project, so kudos to you. So, without further ado, it’s time to announce the winners.
