Estes Park Environmental Film Festival

The third annual Student Environmental Film Festival in the Estes Park High School Auditorium. The purpose of the Film Festival is to amplify the voices of youth in our community by giving them an opportunity to create and reveal their own short films. The free event is hosted by Estes Park High School and the Estes Valley Land Trust, with support from our generous festival sponsor, Bird & Jim. Films will be screened for a public audience and a panel of local judges. The film festival will include short films, each around five minutes in length. After the last film is screened, the judges will join the students on stage and lead a Q&A session with the filmmakers. Judges will rank the films and the top three filmmakers will receive academic scholarships, with a grand prize amount of $4,000. The filmmakers will be judged on the quality and content of their films as well as their participation in the Q&A portion of the event.
