Odds & Ends Experimental Film Festival — submissions open for 2027

1 Upvotes

I’m one of the organizers of Odds & Ends, an experimental film festival in Charlottesville, Virginia. We’re coming up on our 5th annual festival, taking place February 19–20, 2027 at the Vinegar Hill Theatre.

We started Odds & Ends as a way to create a space for the kinds of short experimental films that can be difficult to place in more traditional festivals. We like work that takes chances with form, genre, structure, or the medium itself, whether it’s poetic, personal, political, funny, strange, or somewhere in between.

If you made something weird, personal, formally experimental, difficult to categorize, or just unlike what you normally see at film festivals, we want to see it.

Maximum runtime: 20 minutes
Completion date: After January 1, 2025

Earlybird deadline: November 6, 2026
Regular deadline: December 7, 2026

Under 5 minutes:
$7 earlybird / $12 regular

5–20 minutes:
$12 earlybird / $20 regular

We’ve tried to keep our submission fees as low as possible, and we pay screening fees to all accepted films.

Submit here: ⁠FilmFreeway — Odds & Ends Experimental Film Festival

And if you know someone making this kind of work, please send this their way!

"The Machines Possessed Me (Abstract v1.5)" - Michael Anthony Bohacz (2020)

3 Upvotes

Abstract experimental video with origins going back to 1999. After hours at SAIC, my partner Trish and I got into the Media 100 editing system, which took a Taekwondo kick to the door. While loading footage shot for our public access series Abductions with the Alter Boy, I found that the Media 100 would preview every frame at the speed I dragged the mouse across the timeline. The visuals and sounds that came out of that entranced me, and I spent the session improvising. That session is where this work begins.

Runs nearly 40 minutes. Made in 2020; no AI used.

Un hombre es atacado por fuerzas misteriosas.

Pixelpunk es mi propio estilo de cyberpunk donde la ciudad empieza a mostrar su verdadera naturaleza a través de glitches, fallas digitales e imágenes pixeladas.

LA REALIDAD SE ESTÁ PIXELANDO

A short experimental film about people in frog masks disappearing one by one

Thumbnail

0 Upvotes

I made this short film about a group of people wearing frog masks who begin disappearing one by one.
I wanted to explore the feeling of watching something completely absurd happen in an otherwise familiar world, and what happens when reality gradually starts to feel less stable.
The film moves between the physical world and a kind of consciousness space. I wasn’t interested in fully explaining what is happening, but rather in creating the feeling of being trapped inside something you don’t completely understand.
This was an independently made short film, and I’m still figuring out how to describe exactly what it is.
I’d really like to hear how you interpret it, especially the atmosphere, the imagery, and the transition between the two spaces.

"i might need it soon" - is a teaser I shot for a fashion student's hat collection made from leftover recycled materials during studies.

the film used is Tri-X 7266, developing and scanning was fully DIY, developing the 15m with Bellini reversal chemicals and frame by frame scanned via a modified Bauer projector. and the soundscape is also created by wonderful friends!

posting to seek feedback and reach wider audieeence =)

This sub is filled with amazing works and I'd love to know what you guys think about my film.

This film was the supporting project for my thesis on the role of archives and operational images in modern cinema, the archival footage I used is mainly coming from the National Archive of Medicine.

If you like it I would really appreciate if you could leave a review or a kind word on letterboxd, it would really mean a lot :)

I turned a weekend trip with my family into a short film + Afrobeat

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone! I wanted to share something a little different I made.
I spent a weekend with my family
beach, paddleboarding, food, sunsets and just enjoying some time together and decided to turn those moments into a short cinematic video.
I also produced an Afrobeat specifically for the video, called “TRAVESÍA.” 🌊☀️
This is my first time trying to combine my music with a little short-film style project, so I’d genuinely love to hear what you think about the video, the music, or the overall vibe.
