About
TriForce Short Film Festival TFSFF is a short film festival established by the TriForce Creative Network in 2012 to showcase talent in contemporary film-making, helping emerging film-makers to develop skills and access opportunities to further their careers. With a focus on recognising and supporting diverse talent, the festival brings together film-makers with the movers and shakers in the industry, enabling emerging artists to break into the mainstream. 16 shortlisted films get the chance to be seen on the big screen, in front of key industry representatives, with the winning film-makers earning career development opportunities with our industry partners, as well as a cash prize for their next project.
The TFSFF takes place at BFI Southbank, presenting a packed day of seminars tackling the key issues of the industry and offering invaluable advice from industry professionals, alongside a bustling industry expo and screenings of the shortlisted films. Concluding with a red carpet gala evening attended by high profile supporters, the TFSFF is the place to see untapped and diverse talent, showcasing innovative story-telling and visually stunning short films.
“We were thrilled to have our UK premiere at Triforce Film Festival 2019. The seminars, panels and workshops during the day are an awesome learning opportunity, and the evening gala is a celebration of creativity and community.”
Fola Akingbola, Director
“We had our UK premiere of Dream Date at TFSFF in 2013. The film has now screened world-wide but TriForce were one of the first to see its broad appeal.”
Andromeda Godfrey, Producer
“I was completely blown away by the level of care and thought that TriForce put into the festival for filmmakers. The whole day was full of joy and open hearted individuals and I can’t wait to stay connected with the festival in the future!”
Jessie Ayles, Director
