The Film Advertising Craft Awards and New Directors Showcase will be held in conjunction with Los Angeles International Short Film Festival from September 5 – 12, 2013. As part of this collaboration, ‘LA Shorts Fest’ is inviting creative’s from the advertising industry to submit their short film or music video (10 minutes or less) for festival inclusion.

Our aim is to bring those creative’s together in one place.” - Robert Arentz, founder of THE A-LIST AWARDS
