Celebrating both youth actors and filmmakers, The International KidsNFilm Festival 

Offers a forum for young talents to showcase their work and creativity.  

  

We welcome films that are fun, positive, entertaining, thought-provoking, inspirational, including diverse backgrounds and ethnicities. Films submitted must be for a youth audience and family-friendly. Films are chosen by a jury combined with youth, educators, and filmmakers, rating all entries on entertainment value, originality, acting ability, production value, and the message conveyed.

 

Selected youth filmmakers and actors from around the globe have the opportunity to have their films screened, connect, and interact with peers in attendance. It is an opportunity to talk about challenges, techniques, goals, or simply the fun experienced during the filmmaking process. It is your time to shine, inspire and show off your work whether in front or behind the camera to California’s North Bay area community.

 

The goal of Kids N Film is to encourage confidence, self-esteem

and creativity through on-camera training.
