YAFF 2025 - JMC Academy

About
This screening showcases the amazing work of filmmakers under the age of 18, all across Australia. Come along to see their work and partake in a Q&A session about JMC Academy and pathways after High School. This screening champions the incredible work of those under 18 and the stories they have to tell.The Young Australian Film Festival aims to celebrate and empower the next generation of Storytellers.
As young filmmakers, we realised that despite the wide range of film schools across Australia, there were very few film festivals dedicated to showcasing the work of emerging young talent. As a result of these challenges, we created the Young Australian Film Festival, an event for young filmmakers to showcase their work in a forum that is affordable, accessible and inclusive for filmmakers from all walks of life.
The festival features screenings of all the finalists from September 10th - September 14th, with a red carpet networking event, followed by the award ceremony on the 14th.
