Hosted by Screen Illawarra, the 2026 Creative Wollongong Short Film Festival launch took place last night in Wollongong. 🎥
Attended by the Lord Mayor Tania Brown and Federal MP for Cunningham Alison Byrnes, the venue was full of passionate film makers and was both practical and fun.
Ms Brown revealed that the signature theme for the 2026 festival is 'birds', and announced funding provided by Wollongong City Council will assist in the production of five short films.
Screen Illawarra members can submit their scripts to be independently judged, and five scripts will be matched with a local professional production company.
