Red Rocks AI Film Festival | what matters

Red Rocks is a showcase for AI assisted shorts built around the theme “Illuminate and Uplift.” Submissions are closed for 2025, so this is an event to attend and enjoy rather than to enter. Expect a curated program, an awards segment, and a welcoming crowd that skews family friendly. If you are local, the Electric Theater Center is a great room for seeing how AI driven stories play with a general audience. If you are remote, you can still join via the official livestream and watch along in real time. For filmmakers this is a chance to study pacing and audience reactions without the filter of online comments. For newcomers it is an easy on ramp to see what modern AI workflows can deliver when the work is finished and ready for a screen.
