Mission Statement


Hello! Dead By Dawn Shorts is an attempt to blog up the many varied and wonderful short films submitted to Edinburgh's annual Dead By Dawn film festival, with links to view them online where available.

Dead By Dawn's What You Make it and Cutting Edge short film competitions attract some fine talent, and it's great when you can get back full of enthusiasm and suggestions and send people to an online version rather than tease them with a glowing review of something they'll probably never get to see.

With DbD 2009 a couple of weeks away my goal is to get the cream of the last two years' festivals (the ones I've attended) up before the next batch arrives. When 2009's shorts have been dealt with I'll start to dig into the earlier years, which will be new to me and no doubt full of hideous delights.

If you're a DbD veteran feel free to suggest earlier classics. If you'r a relative virgin like me, chip in with your own favourites from recent years. And in both cases I'll hopefully see you at the end of April for the next round.
