About the CApture Film Festival

CApture Film Festival is a showcase supported by the NSW Department of Education’s CApture filmmaking resource. The interactive resource supports students to produce their own short films as they are guided by interviews from award-winning industry experts, real-world short film examples and engaging activities.

Submitted films from Years 9, 10 and 11 students are between 3 and 5 minutes in duration, include the signature item ‘window' and adhere to the guidelines of a PG-rated film.

The inaugural CApture Film Festival took place at Hoyts Entertainment Quarter in Moore Park on Tuesday 14 November at 7 pm. Senior departmental officers, sponsors and the creators of the CApture filmmaking resource were present for this remarkable occasion.

Congratulations to our CApture 2023 winners!
