Day Job Film Festival
Every three months, we showcase around 10 short films to a live audience of filmmakers, artists and film lovers.
The festival was created from a belief that filmmakers should be treated with care and respect at every stage of their journey. We see short film - often self-funded and made outside traditional systems - as the foundation of independent filmmaking and artistic experimentation.
Alongside the screenings, the festival features filmmaker Q&As, live music, handmade awards and plenty of time for genuine conversation and connection.

Day Job Film Club
Every month, we host a more intimate screening at The Star Above in the heart of North London.
We screen both short films and feature films, followed by filmmaker Q&As, audience discussion and an Audience Award. Rather than formal networking, the Film Club is about bringing filmmakers and industry professionals together in a relaxed environment where conversations happen naturally over a great film.
Whether you're submitting to the Film Festival or the Film Club, our aim is the same: to celebrate independent cinema, champion emerging filmmakers and build a community that lasts long after the credits roll.
