What an amazing second year we had for SIFF. So many people

came to see the fabulous films made by filmmakers from all over the

world. We were so proud that our family passion has been able to help

put Independent films onto the big screen and you helped make it

such a huge success.

 

The VIP Events themselves were the place to be, everybody who attended them had so much fun. Drinking, eating, laughing and just getting to know everybody. We personally throughly enjoyed speaking and meeting you all.

 

Every year we intended to make the festival bigger and better, with this in mind make sure you keep an eye on our website, facebook and twitter for all our exciting updates.

 

The Awards dinner held on the last day of the festival had over 100 people attending, this was also filmed by SUSU TV and SUSU Radio. Over 30 awards were given out and over 20 bottles of Champagne drunk. A good night had by all.

 

We also give budding new producers and directors the chance to get some funding towards their next movie by meeting and discussing ideas.

 

We have our educational programs presenting seminars from people in the industry. This program allows us to share with members and visitors the skills, joys and pitfalls in the success of bringing your vision to the silver screen.

 

We are able to provide a taste of what even the biggest movie makers experienced as they tried to introduce their films into the world. Telling their story has been an important part of the success of our festivals.
