A nationally recognized panel of distinguished film, television, literature, and science fiction industry professionals, peers and film critics will review qualifying submissions and determine the winners.

Submissions are accepted through Submittable.com: https://sffsff.submittable.com/submit. For more information, visit www.empmuseum.org/filmfestival.

Regular Deadline: August 31, 2015
Late Deadline: September 30, 2015

FORMAT: 10 short films will screen in the first session followed by 10 short films in the second session. An awards ceremony will follows the second session, and all filmmakers are invited to a post-festival reception with jurors, EMP and SIFF supporters, and members of the Seattle film and sci-fi/fantasy communities.
