Filmmaker Sessions Volume 3 refers to an edition of the Lift-Off Filmmaker Sessions, an online showcase organized by the Lift-Off Global Network. This program is designed to provide a screening opportunity for new and emerging filmmakers, featuring a collection of globally submitted independent shorts and features of all genres. All submitters are guaranteed a screening, and films are judged by an official panel and audience scores. Top-scoring films are awarded and may be shortlisted for the annual Lift-Off Season Awards, which have a ceremony at Pinewood Studios. The First-Time Filmmaker Sessions, which is closely related, aims to connect new voices with new audiences and focuses on providing a platform for avant-garde projects rather than solely selecting the "best" or most "commercial" films.
