A unique series of quarterly competitions will lead to an annual short film festival — the Golden Star Shorts Fest — to take place in LA, the film capital of the world, during the Winter awards season. Quarterly winners in all categories will become finalists and compete for the prestigious Golden Star Awards. Juries will be comprised of distinguished industry professionals, filmmakers and film critics. The screening committees will review films from several categories, selecting finalists on a quarterly basis. These finalists will then compete for Golden Star Awards to be presented to winning filmmakers in each category. Filmmakers can submit in any of the following categories: o Dramatic Competition o Comedy Competition o Animation Competition o Documentary Competition o Experimental Competition o Music Video Competition
