The Pan African Film & Art Festival is an Oscar-qualifying festival for animation and live action films.
Inspired by acclaimed Los Angeles filmmaker John Singleton, a partnership between the City of Los Angeles and the Pan African Film Festival has announced the second season of their screenwriting competition: The John Singleton Short Film Competition. Three filmmakers will be awarded $20,000 each for the production and completion of a live-action narrative short film of their winning screenplays.
