OUR MISSION:

  The STAUROS ENTERTAINMENT INSPIRATIONAL INDEPENDENT FILM AWARDS -(a.k.a. SEIIF AWARDS)

mission is to commend Independent Films, Filmmakers, and Actors, by providing a platform for Independent Filmmakers & Actors to have an opportunity to be recognized and honored for their work in Independent Films.


  In order, to allow all you Independent Filmmakers

to be given more of a fair opportunity to be assessed within this awards competition, we separated some similar “Categories” to fit within your film’s production budget, for we understand, not all of you Indie-Filmmakers may have had the financial means or resources to have made your films as others may or may not have had. 


  Our goal, is to INSPIRE you ALL to be able to create and showcase your art, and not feel that you may not have an equal opportunity to compete, due to any possible lack of financial, or production valued resources, etc.. 

With all that said...
