Welcome filmmakers and creators!

Welcome to Ethereal Frames Film and Art Awards! We accept submissions of all kinds. Be it short films, features, screenplays, photography, music/score, digital art, or anything else you can think of. If you have a passion for it, then we would love to be a part of your creative journey!

We have a true love for cinema, and the creative arts as a whole, so please feel free to truly take us into your world, and share with us what makes your creative soul sing! No restrictions on rating, length, or year it was produced; there is a place in the California sun for you all! Be it Drama, Comedy, Documentary, Painting, Poetry, or anything else, we want to see it!

We hold a special spot in our hearts for independent films with passion. Where you can feel the love for the craft from the filmmaker, despite the size and scope of the project.

We hold a live screening and award ceremony where we announce the best projects in each category, and the winners will be awarded a custom certificate for their excellent work! One overall project who we feel truly excels will win Best of the Fest!
