We want you to make stories with robots

Excited to announce the second annual Robot Film Festival will be July 14-15, 2012 in New York City! Get inspired with our previous winners: BOTSKER AWARDS and VIDEO GALLERY. Video submissions are now open!

A two day celebration of robots on film, last year's festival opened with a screening of Spike Jonze's "I'm Here," juried screenings and live performances by Reggie Watts, Josh Ventura, Robot Cowboy, Double Rainbow and Jilted. The official awards ceremony of the Robot Film Festival, the "Botskers," honored the winners in a black tie, red carpet gala. Sunday included workshops and a finale BBQ.

We encourage filmmakers to highlight innovation, explore frontiers before technically feasible and investigate humanity, machinery and the larger symbolisms within. The festival was founded by Heather Knight of Marilyn Monrobot and is co-organized by Marek Michalowski of Beatbots.

Special thanks to the 2011 FESTIVAL TEAM!
