LEGO Star Wars: The 25-Second Film Festival

in LEGO Star Wars

To celebrate the 25th anniversary of LEGO Star Wars, the LEGO Star Wars team invites fans to the 25-Second Film Festival. You can submit any film in any style for this event – stop-motion brickfilms, hand-drawn films, films made with CGI, etc. – as long as it is 25 seconds long and represents LEGO Star Wars sets and minifigures.

You can recreate your favorite Star Wars moments, or forge a new one with LEGO Star Wars characters, places, and ships you treasure – whatever shows off your love for the galaxy. This is your blank canvas to tell your own LEGO Star Wars story, and the LEGO Group’s opportunity to celebrate the community’s creativity in the way it deserves to be celebrated.

 

Submissions are open on LEGO.com/LSW-25 between March 1st and April 22nd. The LEGO Star Wars team encourages you to read the rules before making your film, so you stand the best chance of creating something that’ll be accepted. Films that don’t meet the guidelines won’t pass moderation and won’t be featured in the festival. You’re invited to create something bespoke for the festival, or if you’ve got a previous creation that’d be a perfect fit, that’s welcome too.

The 25-Second Film Festival then launches on May 4th. Films that are featured will appear on the official LEGO YouTube channel or www.LEGO.com/LSW-25 between May 4th and 25th. Whilst this isn’t a competition and there won’t be any winners, you’ll get access to exclusive digital rewards through LEGO Insiders just for sending in a submission.

On the anniversary page, you and fellow fans will find a series of 25-second films that the LEGO Star Wars team commissioned to get the ball rolling, made by a mix of studios, individual creators, and AFOL filmmakers – all of whom are fans. They can be watched over at LEGO.com/LSW-25.

If you have any questions or thoughts about this event, feel free to share in the comment section below! And if you’re participating with your own brickfilm, may the Force be with you…
