Made in the West 2016 is OPEN FOR SUBMISSIONS!


We are pleased to announce that the 2016 Made in the West Film Festival is now open for submissions! Entries close at midnight on 9th November -- ENTER YOUR FILM TO WIN!!

Have you made a film this year that features a location, cast member or crew member from Western Sydney?

We accept all genres of film -- documentary, drama, horror, music videos, animation -- whatever you're producing, we're keen to see it!

Check out our Entry Criteria page for the full list of details.

Made in the West 2016 will be held on Thursday, 1st December at the Paddo RSL (upstairs).

Join us for a marathon film screening of Western Sydney's best flicks of 2016 and we'll finish the night with an awards ceremony to remember!

All films will be judged by an independent panel of industry professionals. VIP finalists will compete for the major prize awards for Best in the West (independent films only) and Best Student Film.

The final trophy rests in the hands of the audience -- could it go your way? We count the votes for the crowd's favourite film of the night and one lucky winner goes home with the highly coveted Audience Choice Award!

Individual category awards for Best Director, Best Cinematographer, Best Editor, Best Sound Editor, and Best Actor/Actress will be presented throughout the night.

Entries close 9th November at midnight.
