History

Over the years, SBIFF has invited numerous potential award-winning celebrities, including Cate Blanchett,[4] Guillermo Del Toro, Laura Dern,[5] Leonardo DiCaprio,[6] Angelina Jolie,[7] Jennifer Lawrence,[8] Heath Ledger,[9] Eddie Redmayne, Martin Scorsese,[10] and Kate Winslet.[11]

In 2006, a third of the festival's slots were dedicated to films by Hispanic filmmakers. Programming categories at that time included Nature films, "surf flicks" and adventure-sports films.[12]

In addition to its annual festival in February, the SBIFF "Cinema Society" hosts programming year round at the Riviera Theater in Santa Barbara.[13][5]

10-10-10 Student Film Competition

One feature of the film festival is the 10-10-10 competition.[16] Students enrolled at Santa Barbara area high schools and colleges are invited to submit either a 10-page sample of writing for the Screenwriting portion of the competition, or a five-minute sample of their best filmmaking efforts for the directing portion. Ten writers are selected to write one 10-minute script each; the scripts are then matched with the ten filmmakers. Those students then have ten days to shoot and edit the completed ten-minute short film, during the ten days of the festival. Films are screened and winners are announced on closing night. A selection committee consisting of representatives from each school, Industry professionals and SBIFF representatives select the participants.[17]

The program was extended into a summer camp where area youths from schools and local Boys & Girls Clubs learned filmmaking skills.[18]
