Shorts came to life in February 2003, screening all entered films in a venue that was once a motor garage. Shorts has since grown, and now features the Top 30 films from entries received Australia-wide and from Asia-Pacific. Marking a new era in the Festival’s 11-year history, Shorts is very excited to bring you this year’s festival outdoors at the Frome Street Surf Life Saving Club. Ross Ganf, the Creative Director behind Adelaide Festival’s Barrio and Lola’s Pergola, has transformed Stratco City Beach into a unique outdoor cinema. Once a biennial event, it is now an annual fixture with a style that is uniquely ‘Shorts’. This is not cinema as you expect it. You are part of the screening, not just a passive viewer. With great wine from Alpha Box & Dice, delicious food from Golden Gullet, music from DJ Dexter and the Adelaide vinyl beach combers, and the highest quality screening and sound systems from Mosaic Audio Visual, you can enjoy true entertainment—an eclectic collection of films to make you think and spark conversation. The Shorts experience is all about sitting down with friends, or strangers who may well become your friends by the end of the night, and discussing what you’ve just experienced. Who knows, the filmmaker may even be right next to you... this is what Shorts is all about. None of this would be possible without the generous and committed support from our sponsors. We are especially grateful to those who began the journey with us and who have remained alongside us for the ride —Kojo Group, sector7g and Best Fx—their incredible passion for film and creative work has helped to nurture Shorts. And of course we are delighted with the continuing support of sponsors such as Flinders University, Beach Energy, Finlaysons and Kennedy & Co, who share our vision for the festival and its future. All of the Directors and many of the staff are volunteers, putting countless hours into an event that we truly love. Our judges—more than fifty every year—watch every entry and provide considered and thoughtful feedback to ensure that the films presented to you are truly all about the story. We trust that you will have an immensely enjoyable time during the show. Lastly, I would like to thank our festival management team, Anastasia Renfrey, Ross Ganf and Travis Kalendra who have worked tirelessly to make Shorts a success. To all our filmmakers, sponsors, patrons, supporters, judges, volunteers, guests and audience members who make this event possible, we thank you! Paul Jorgensen (Chair) On behalf of the Board of Festival Directors: Teri Whiting (Founding Director), Yuko Nakayama, John MacPhail, Alison Wotherspoon and Kirsty Stark.

FROM LITTLE THINGS BIG THINGS GROW Many short films are labours of love, made on microscopic budgets within limited resources by enthusiastic emerging filmmakers. Often these creative teams meet up while studying and go on to forge successful careers. After directing award winning short films, which include My Last Ten Hours with You, Elephantiasis and Necessary Games, former Flinders University student, Sophie Hyde, has gone onto international acclaim as the director of the feature film 52 Tuesdays. Sophie, in collaboration with former Flinders University students Rebecca Summerton, Matt Bate and Bryan Mason are Closer Productions, an Adelaide based collective of filmmakers that is having some remarkable success nationally and internationally. That 52 Tuesdays won awards at the Sundance Film Festival and Berlin International Film Festival – while working from Adelaide, makes it even more remarkable. Sophie believes part of the reason for Closer’s success is the support they are able to offer each other because of the relationships they have developed since meeting as first year Screen and Media students at Flinders. “When I finished school I was going to take a year off but then I came to Flinders and saw a film lecture. I was so excited by it that I decided to enrol. “It was during our first year that we all met – although we only came together at Closer Productions later. We’re all really close friends now and because of that we’re able to be fairly brutal with each other about how things are going. “That’s absolutely a product of knowing each other for such a long time, but it’s also just part of who we are as people, because we’re all very driven by our work. “I thought when you grew up you met and got along with lots of people but as I got older I realised that it’s actually quite rare and you should hold onto those people. Asked whether she has advice for young Australian film makers, Ms Hyde says they should be clear about what they want, and not assume they have to do it the conventional way. “When we were going through Flinders I didn’t feel like you could make films and stay in Adelaide,” she said. “There were some exceptions, like Scott Hicks, but generally I felt like it was all happening somewhere else. “I hope that young film makers will look at the success of 52 Tuesdays and how we work at Closer, which has been set up so that we can make films in South Australia, and see they can create the things they want and that not everyone has to do the same thing. “I’d advise them to be very clear about they want to do and try their best to get it. The most important things are to make a choice and not feel like you have to live by the rules that other people have set up. “Success can happen very slowly, and the creativity happens in all areas, so how you set your life up is also really important.” SHORTS OUTBACK A NIGHT OF AWARD WINNING FILMS UNDER THE STARS MAY 16—17, 2015 WILPENA POUND RESORT SHORTSFILMFESTIVAL.COM Insurance Corporate Finance Finance Mortgage Broking K Accounting & Taxation Business Advice SMSF Services Financial Planning Audit and Assurance Forensic Accounting Succession Planning Property & Taxation Insolvency & Reconstruction Litigation Support Protected Estates 140 Greenhill Road UNLEY SA 5061 t.
