Festival Background

The Malaysian creative content industry has grown tremendously. In fact, the industry has always been seen as a supporting platform to other industries in Malaysia, which is now going international. In conjunction, government initiatives are provided for the community to venture into the industry. It can be seen through the policies spelled-out in the Dasar Industri Kreatif Negara. Hence, SCIMPA UUM takes this opportunity to bring professionals, academics, practitioners, AND students from all over the world together in further nurturing the potentials to the Asian Youth Indie Film Festival 2018 (AYIFF 2018).

 

Objectives of the Festival

• To recognize and reward the work of our students and indie artists through film and animation festivals.
• To encourage students and young indie filmmakers to produce high quality creative works.
