About

Based in the dazzling city of Sydney Australia our festival is breaking the traditional film festival rules that often overlook the new wave of digital filmmakers working on platforms like YouTube. The Fly Creator Excellence Awards is built to recognize and elevate these creators to a professional level, celebrating their artistic and technical achievements while providing a prestigious platform for exposure.

Mark your calendars: October 18th, The 2025 Awards Night is happening at The Connection in Sydney

With the rise of high-production YouTube content, many creators now produce films, documentaries, and visually stunning narratives that rival traditional cinema. Yet, few platforms recognize these digital filmmakers at a professional level. The Fly Creator Excellence Awards fills this gap by providing:

• Focusing on filmmaking, storytelling, and quality video content, not just views.

• A fully online submission process, requiring only a YouTube link (no re-uploads).
