Giannetti Films launched Vertical Festival as a natural extension of its commitment to evolving storytelling and supporting where the industry is headed next. As vertical filmmaking emerged as a powerful, cinematic medium, not just short-form content- Giannetti Films recognized the need for a legitimate, in-person platform that treated vertical stories with the same respect as traditional film. Vertical Festival was created to spotlight bold, emotionally driven work designed for the vertical frame, while bringing together filmmakers, creators, and industry leaders who are shaping how stories are produced, distributed, and experienced on today’s platforms. The festival exists to champion emerging voices, celebrate innovation, and give the next wave of visual storytelling a stage that reflects its cultural and creative impact.
