CREATIVE CUTS - Lights, camera, action!

The Rangebow MicroFilm Festival is a vibrant celebration of short films and micro games by Queensland creatives, held as part of the Rangebow Festival. From bold animations to experimental gems, this unique screen event showcases local talent, industry talks, and awards across multiple categories.

Whether you’re a filmmaker, game developer, or just love fresh screen culture, come along for a day of screenings, panels, and creative inspiration on October 11 from 9am.

The program includes an opening by Sunshine Coast Council Mayor, Rosanna Natoli; Meet the Makers hosted by Christine Rogers (with invited guests John Harvey, Ryan Neil Butler and Hannah Levien), the MicroFilm Competition Finalists and Awards with MC Victoria McGuin, and the UniSC Student Film Showcase.

There will also be an inclusive filmmaking session including Veronica Wain (Bus Stop Films), Danielle Tomlinson (documentary maker and brain injury survivor), with singer-songwriter and Autism Queensland ambassador, Emma Tomlinson; the MicroGame Dev Finalists and Awards – MCs Colleen Steiler-Hunt and Alex Muscat, and AI: Midjourney for Beginners – a fun workshop with Aesop Media.

Come to create, celebrate, and connect—with cash prizes, mentorships, and unforgettable stories waiting to be shared. (Pictured is last year’s Rangebow Microfilm Best in Region winner.) Full details and bookings at therangebowfestival.org
