Film Festival has issued a Call for Entries for the 4th annual 2014 event, which will take place this year on September 12th–14th. Last day for late (non-early bird) film entry is usually sometime in July. So there is still plenty of time to make your films. The Shortz! Film Festival is an annual international short film festival in Chico, California which showcases the best and brightest short films from around the globe. The festival accepts and screens short films with running times of 40 minutes or less in any genre. Created by local filmmakers from Chico, California, Shortz! was started with the desire to bring film makers together in a fun and funky environment, to meet and network with the ultimate goal of producing more films.
