𝗜𝗧'𝗦 𝗕𝗔𝗖𝗞!

We're thrilled to officially announce the theme for our 2027 Get Smart! Presented by Buy West Eat Best smartphone filmmaking competition.

The 2027 theme is 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗘𝗦𝗘, giving filmmakers the option to explore a range of genres. The theme 𝗖𝗛𝗘𝗘𝗦𝗘 can be as subtle as you'd like it to be. Eating, buying or cooking cheese, taking a photo and saying “cheese!”, or simply using the word cheese are just some samples to help you get started.

Get Smart! Presented by Buy West Eat Best invites established filmmakers, independent filmmakers, students, and the general public to submit a smartphone masterpiece to be considered for a special event screening during the next WA Made Film Festival in 2027.

The Get Smart! Presented by Buy West Eat Best event screening will be held at Palace Cinemas Raine Square, and will include a before and after party, drinks and food, networking opportunities and an awards ceremony which will include a major cash prize of $1000 for Best Film decided by a jury of industry professionals.

WA filmmakers will have until the end of the year to complete their films with submissions for Get Smart! Presented by Buy West Eat Best opening along with regular feature film, short film and documentary submissions on Monday, 3 August and closing Tuesday, 1 December 2026.

Happy filming!

We'd also like to acknowledge artist Charlotte Bayly for her incredible work on our 2027 artwork! This is the 5th piece of artwork created by Charlotte for this competition.
