About

Digital filmmaking technology gets cheaper every year, opening opportunities for budding auteurs with limited resources. Filmmaking tools that are cheap, simple and widely available (coupled with the collective knowledge of the internet) are driving fresh, unique and open approaches to cinema.

We are aiming to be at the forefront of this new wave of filmmakers with our new platform – the Mobile Motion Film Festival. MoMo provides a level playing field for filmmakers where talent, creativity and hard work counts more than budget and industry connections.

The Festival lasts just one day, but a day packed with thought provoking masterclasses as well as two screenings of the best films followed by an Award Ceremony.

Moreover the screenings will be streamed live via the Momo official website to allow everyone around the world to join us for the night and even help choose the winner of the Audience Choice Award.

Awards
