London Short Film Showcase 

Website: http://londonshortfilmshowcase.com The London Short Film Showcase allows filmmakers the opportunity to display their works through an alternative to traditional film festivals. The annual event, held in November of each year, screens films from across the city and around the world. All accepted films are recognized for their inherent value, and networking opportunities are provided to their creators. Filmmaking is a form of art and entertainment, but it can also provide a lucrative career. The London Short Film Showcase strives to teach and promote that aspect of the film industry.
