  • The Toronto Youth Shorts Film Festival is a showcase of short films, video art and new media projects held during the summer in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. All work is made by young people living in the Greater Toronto Area. While the festival used to be open to those aged 18–28, it has now opened its submission call to those aged 14–28. As a festival that it only accepts work by artists residing in the Greater Toronto Area, it is a forum to spotlight the work of local emerging artists. Toronto is a city with many film festivals that highlights commercial and international work. The idea behind Toronto Youth Shorts is to highlight the locality of not only the people involved but also the content of the films. It is the only festival that restricts submissions to those residing in the Greater Toronto Area. Films screened include those made by current students and graduates of notable fine arts programs from Ryerson University, OCAD, Humber College and York University. All films are under 20 minutes in length. The festival events include screenings of work and occasionally a panel of industry guests to speak in relevant topics of the local film industry. At the end of the festival, there is an awards gala to celebrate the work of the filmmakers screened where a jury made up of industry professionals select their top picks screened at the festival and bestow upon them various awards and accolades. Now Magazine calls it "a festival with an intriguing mandate and a sense of genuine discovery." (en)
