The Digital Griffix Film Awards is an international film festival based in Quebec, Canada, dedicated to discovering, recognizing, and promoting independent filmmakers from around the world.

Founded by Digital Griffix, a company with a background in visual effects, animation, and digital production, the festival was created with a strong appreciation for both the creative and technical work behind filmmaking.

We welcome films from emerging and established filmmakers across a wide range of genres and formats, including narrative films, documentaries, animation, experimental projects, web series, student films, and more.

Throughout the season, selected projects compete in multiple categories recognizing directing, acting, cinematography, editing, screenwriting, music, sound, and other aspects of filmmaking.

More Than an Award

Our goal is not only to recognize great work, but also to give filmmakers additional opportunities for visibility and creative support.

Depending on the category and season, selected nominees and winners may benefit from:

Official nominee and winner certificates
Filmmaker interviews published through our online and social media platforms
Promotional exposure for selected projects
VFX and 3D production benefits offered by Digital Griffix
Special prizes and industry-related opportunities for selected annual winners

At the end of the season, selected films may also be presented as part of our annual live screening and awards event in Quebec, Canada,bringing filmmakers and audiences together to celebrate independent cinema.

The Digital Griffix Film Awards believes that independent filmmaking deserves to be seen, celebrated, and supported.

We look forward to discovering your work.
