Why Your Film Wants An
OSCAR RUN

Although WEA cannot ensure that your non-student short film will be nominated by The Academy®, we can guarantee that if your short does not win a qualifying award from an OSCAR Short Film Qualifying Festival List competition or enjoys a seven day Standard Theatrical Run at an Academy designated movie theater, then your film will not be nominated because it does not even qualify for OSCAR Consideration.

DCP Required to Screen

In order to screen Sept. 24-30, 2023 the film's Digital Cinema Package must be supplied at the filmmaker's costs.

WEA will refer filmmaker to an affordable supplier, if needed.
