NFFTY (National Film Festival for Talented Youth) is the flagship program of The Talented Youth, a Seattle based non-profit.

NFFTY is the largest and most influential film festival for young filmmakers (age 22 and under). NFFTY occurs each spring in Seattle, Washington and includes over 200 film screenings, filmmaking panels, film contests, parties, and opportunities for young filmmakers to network with industry professionals and each other. Young filmmakers from around the world submit feature-length and short films in narrative, documentary, animation, music video, experimental, and action sport categories.  More than 8,000 film fans attended NFFTY 2011, April 28-May 1, and 10,000 are expected at NFFTY 2012.

NFFTY.org is a year-round resource for young filmmakers. Our site features video interviews, guest bloggers, filmmaking resources, crew calls, short films and other news and information geared towards young filmmakers and film fans of any age.

Youth Filmmaking Excellence provides professional level training to young filmmakers in order to increase their artistic and technical filmmaking skills.
