La Jolla Film Festival is an annual event showcasing the talents of local filmmakers of all ages. It's an exciting benefit for local students and the community to display their original works. Submitters create films that portray profound messages and project empathy as well as wit and obscurity.
All films are to be submitted to the La Jolla Film Festival by way of a hyperlink through ljfilmfestival@gmail.com. In correlation with this year's theme, all films must include a record. You may absolutely submit more than one film, and your film may be about any topic as long as it consists of this year's item and meets the guidelines! Ten finalists will be selected out of all entries. However, all successful entrants will be showcased on our website. LJFF does not exclude from consideration submissions that contain licensed music.
The ten films are chosen by the Film Festival's preliminary panel of judges and then evaluated by Festival's official judges.
