REVIEWS

Some of our Filmmakers most welcomed reviews. Thank you all.



Dasha Khritankova. Great festival! Great communication, friendly team. I have a very positive with this festival! December 2020

Derlis Alvarenga. Great for meeting and greeting, I had a wonderful time watching the works of fellow filmmakers and animators while attending the festival in Santa Barbara.January 2019


Tyler Cole. I was unable to attend this year, but so honored to be selected. The communication was also wonderful!! August 2018  

John Maslowski. I really enjoyed this festival. Lynn is so nice. The screening was outdoors which in Santa Barbara is a beautiful thing.August 2018 


Keith Cantrell. Just now getting around to writing this 5-star review, but the 3 Minute Film Festival was so much fun!!! I had never been to Santa Barbara before, so I enjoyed taking a road trip up from Los Angeles when my short film Paddleball Hole screened at the festival. Definitely arrive early so you can explore the beautiful city. I met some wonderful filmmakers at this event, and the festival director Lynn is well-organized and keeps everything running smoothly. Would love to participate again in the future. Thanks for a wonderful festival!
