Western Union Short Film Competition
The Western Union Short Film Competition is a short film competition, hosted by the Indian Film Festival of Melbourne, that is open to filmmakers from Australia and India. It provides filmmakers with an opportunity to showcase their films to a wide audience and establish connections within the industry.
The competition is the ultimate platform an aspiring filmmaker can hope for. The exposure, the reach and the encouragement offered are unparalleled. For me, the Western Union Short Film Competition will always be a major milestone that gave me confidence, and a showcase.
