Welcome to the 2026 Below the Line Film Festival page
Celebrating our 5th season!!
The 2026 Below the Line Film Festival, proudly produced by Chill Bucket Productions,
is a celebration of the artists, technicians, and craftspeople who bring stories
to life behind the scenes. Dedicated to the “below the line” professionals—those
working in editing, sound, design, production, wardrobe, and every
essential department—the festival showcases innovative short films,
insightful panel discussions, and opportunities for creative collaboration.
Join us at the historic Episcopal Actors Guild Hall in New York City,
October 2nd & 3rd, 2026, for an inspiring weekend of screenings, workshops,
and community. Whether you’re a filmmaker, crew member, or film enthusiast,
the Below the Line Film Festival is your chance to connect, learn, and experience
the often-overlooked artistry that powers every great production.
