No stiff speeches. No polite clapping. Just a live room responding in real time.

We’re celebrating standout work across NYCFF’s official categories:

  • Shorty Shorts

  • Short Films

  • Features

  • Docs & Mocks

  • TV Episodics

Awards are selected by the NYCFF jury, recognizing originality, voice, and execution. And yes, they’re involved because they love comedy as much as we do — whatever other reasons brought them out tonight are between them and the bar.

The NYCFF Awards close out our festival the right way — by trusting everyone got the joke.
