At the Very Short Film Festival (VSFF), we’re passionate about nurturing creativity and providing opportunities that go beyond the competition itself. From mentoring and inspiration to education and community engagement, we’re building pathways for emerging storytellers to develop their craft and confidence.
We’re excited to announce a brand-new opportunity for high school students — a one-day filmmaking experience presented by the VSFF in partnership with SAE University College.
On Saturday 6 December, students across Brisbane, Sydney and Melbourne will step into SAE’s state-of-the-art studios to plan, shoot and edit a micro short film — all in one day. Guided by SAE’s expert film lecturers, participants will gain hands-on experience in real production environments.
It’s free, fully hands-on, and includes lunch — but with only 20 spots per campus, places are limited.
Workshop Locations — Saturday 6 December:
Brisbane: Register here
Sydney: Register here
Melbourne: Register here
If you’re not based in one of these cities, stay tuned — we’re working to bring more workshops and opportunities to new regions in 2026.
Spots are limited — register now and join us for a full day of creativity, collaboration and fun.
