The Greenfield Youth Film Festival (GYFF) is a partnership between the Greenfield Foundation and the School District of Upper Dublin which offers high school students direct access to university-level academics and seasoned industry professionals while enabling them to explore filmmaking with a holistic approach, at the same time promoting the Philadelphia region as a place to study and work.

GYFF integrates both an artistic and technical approach to the filmmaking process and provides a forum for young filmmakers to collaborate, create and showcase their work including a daylong academic workshop and Academy-style awards night.

GYFF is unique in its incorporation of higher education, media professionals, and the involvement of a major philanthropic foundation.

More than a film competition, it is a learning experience.

We know the students have a voice, the Greenfield Youth Film Festival will help insure that it is heard.
