The Visionaries Presents: The Visionaries Short Film Festival

The Visionaries congregated at All Is Joy Studios to bring together an eclectic mix of directors and creatives for the latest instalment of their Visionaries Short Film Festival. 

The evening unfolded in the studio’s 120-seater cinema, for the screening of nine short films from some of the best and brightest directors on The Visionaries Roster. The screened films were CAKE by Alan Friel; Travelooper by Jennifer Sheridan; Seven by James Morgan; At First Sight by Pedro Allevato; The Ringmaster by Maya Albanese; Non-Playable Connection by Zeynep Oguz; Business Plan by Stefano & Alejandra; Take Me by Claire Norowzian; and ORIGINS by Phil Hawkins.

Guests enjoyed an open bar, provided by the wonderful sponsors of the event (Work Editorial, Covert, Naf+ and Felt Music), gathering in All is Joy’s resident Bozo’s Bar for ample networking opportunities and plenty of laughs. The Lemonade Lounge returned in full swing, with a performance from The Teapot Travellers, providing a relaxed and inspiring space for conversations to flow.
