Check out http://dcshorts.com/ for details. I recently added the DC Shorts Film Festival to my To Participate in page on my own site. One day I hope it’ll happen.
But I checked out the DC Shorts Film Festival on my site on Friday night, and we saw Showcase 5 and the best films on there were:
- Corner Delancey
- En Pos De Dios
- CU@ED’s
- Tough Crowd was good too and worth checking out.
The Washington Post had this article on the DC Shorts Film Festival 2008 on Thursday, September 11, 2008. Going through the article, “The List” seems pretty interesting described by the post as a “brief, brutal little story on interrogation.”
Rob Raffety’s Funniest Fed 2007 Documentary was also featured in this film festival (it was premiered at the DC Independent Film Festival – here’s its page on that site), but unfortunately, it had to be shortened and as a result, the stuff featuring me was removed.

Update: 9/15/2008:
- Rob Raffety’s Funniest Fed 2007 won the best local film award at the DC Shorts Film Festival, so congratulations to him
- Rob Raffety was also mentioned in the Washington Post here for his hilarious greeting (all filmmakers in the DC Shorts Film Festival have their own mailboxes which can be used to reach out to them)
- Nice little feature in the Washington Post on Jonn Gann, the founder of the DC Shorts Film Festival, DC Film Alliance, and DC Film Salon
