SHIBUYA, Japan, Aug. 1, 2025 /PRNewswire/ -- BRANDED SHORTS, launched in 2016 as an official category of Short Shorts Film Festival & Asia (SSFF & ASIA), marks its 10th anniversary in 2025. Over the past decade, the category has explored the creative potential that lies beyond the boundaries of film and advertising, bringing to life the stories and messages of countless brands through the power of short films.

As BRANDED SHORTS enters its 11th year in 2026, it will take a bold new step forward—transforming into a platform that embraces even more diverse values and perspectives in visual storytelling. In anticipation of this evolution, we are now accepting year-round submissions of branded movies from creators around the world.

Alongside this, we are also accepting entries for three special awards launched to commemorate our 10th anniversary: the newly established Personal Branding Award, the HR Best Short Award which highlights work from an HR and recruitment perspective, and the 15th Tourism Video Award, featuring promotional films produced across all 47 prefectures of Japan.

As BRANDED SHORTS moves into its next chapter, we invite you to share your bold and creative stories with us.
