AI Tool and Model Rules
Films substantially created with AI must be submitted ONLY to the AI-generated/Best AI Micro Short category, not the regular categories. AI may produce footage, visuals, animation, sound, voices, script, VFX or significant creative edits. Minor automatic noise reduction and basic captions alone do not make a film AI-generated. Applicants must fully disclose AI tools and how AI contributed.
Review the official rules for the complete submission terms.
Submission Requirements
Enter Best AI Micro Short via FilmFreeway. Film up to 7 minutes (including credits), wholly or partly AI-created, with an explanation of AI tools and their contribution. Provide MP4 or MOV preview, project credits and title, contact/production details, completion date and rights confirmations. English or accurate English subtitles required.
