A NEW HOME FOR SHORT FILMS

Short Frame is a leading online short film platform, showcasing exceptional films from around the world to an audience of millions.

Film festivals are an important part of a short film’s life. But once the screenings come to an end, finding an audience can become much harder.

At Short Frame, we help filmmakers distribute their short films online, bringing their work to new audiences and giving films a life beyond the festival circuit. Whether you’ve just finished your festival run or have older films sitting in your back catalogue, we want to help more people discover your work and give you the opportunity to earn revenue along the way.

HAVE A FILM YOU’D LIKE TO SHARE?

Our curated catalogue spans genres and styles, showcasing films from emerging filmmakers alongside award-winning work that has screened at festivals including Cannes, Sundance and Berlinale. We’ve helped individual films reach hundreds of thousands of viewers, with some attracting millions of views.

We work with filmmakers to bring their films to new audiences, promoting them to our growing community of short film fans. Our revenue-sharing model means filmmakers receive a share of the advertising revenue their films generate, creating an opportunity to earn money from work that might otherwise no longer be reaching an audience.

Our approach is non-exclusive, so filmmakers retain ownership of their films and remain free to pursue other opportunities. Whether you’re looking to give a recent film a life beyond the festival circuit or bring an older project to a new audience, we’d love to hear from you.
