Welcome to DAY 2 of ZUMEFF 2021

Welcome back everyone to Day 2 of the 11th annual Zayed University Middle East Film Festival. We hope that you enjoyed Day 1 yesterday and had the chance to view some of the outstanding films submitted this year.

Today’s line up brings you all the films which won an Honorable Mention award in the three categories of Animation, Documentary and Fiction..  In addition to viewing these award-winning films you will meet each of the filmmakers virtually and hear what inspired them to make these winning films.

We also have a special segment today brought to you by our partner, twofour54’s Creative Lab titled, Meet the talents working behind the scenes.”

In this segment we will hear from Ellaine, a make-up artist, photographer and branding consultant for social content creation, Aiham, an Emirati filmmaker, director, producer and actor and Shaima, one of our own Zayed University Alumni, who directs, produces and does voice overs.  These three talents will give you some great tips on how to get into the ‘behind the scenes’ of the filmmaking industry.

Enjoy!
