Sponsored by the Phoenixville Film Festival Shorty’s Short Film Contest

Each year, inspired by the same muse that sang to Director Irvin “Shorty” Yeaworth when he conceived of The Blob, filmmakers of all ages compose entries for our Annual Shorty’s Short Film Contest. Winning films will be screened for the public all day Saturday, July 13 during Blobfest 2024. Prizes will be awarded to the winners on Friday night.
