“Super impressed with them and love that they have kid judges,” said filmmaker Nicole Rose in 2020.
Charlotte McLaverty stated in 2019, “Such a friendly creative film festival. It was a wonderful experience.”
Last years’ winners were from the U. S., Australia and Korea. Four awards will be given out at ILICFF – “Most Uplifting Film” sponsored by the Uplifting Minds II entertainment Conference;” “Best Film Made FOR Kids; “Film Festival Choice,” and “Best Film Made BY Kids.”
The “Imagination Lunchbox International Children’s Film Fest” was created in 2016 by Hobbs to give young filmmakers, like him, a platform to showcase their films and view other creative projects made for a young audience. Anthony has garnered over 20 awards for writing, starring-in, directing and producing multi award winning short films, such as One Nation, and Naga Pixie. He has also produced short films through his company Imagination Lunchbox, LLC for others, such as Agent Hollywood – another multi-award winning film.
