The SHORT SOUNDS FILM FESTIVAL champions the unseen maestros behind the sound and music of cinema. Our fourth festival will take place ONLINE between the 25th to the 28th February 2021, join us for a programme of short films and movies richly authentic in their use of sound and music accompanied by talks, virtual networking, awards and competitions designed to challenge your very relationship with cinematic audio.

The SHORT SOUNDS FILM FESTIVAL is the world’s first dedicated celebration of cinematic sound and music.  The world is full of NOISE, loud, raw and unrelenting on our eardrums. Escaping it is nigh on impossible and in time it fades motionless to the background of our lives, HOWEVER…

… in the temple of cinema, the crude ore of NOISE is crafted by unsung masters into sculpted waves designed to wash sensually upon our ears with majesty and wonderment. Rich in resonance, subtle in sentiment and lasting in legacy, this mesmerising process has seen NOISE become SOUND.
