We’re excited to announce the short film program for 2023, which will premier during TEDxSydney 2023 on 1 September at the Hordern Pavilion.
This year we have an extraordinary line-up of entertaining and thought provoking shorts, that each incapsulate the theme of Tipping Point in creative and unique ways.
Now celebrating it’s 10th year, the TEDxSydney Film program offers audiences a mini visual refresh and reset between the main stage talks.
“Collaborating with this year’s filmmakers has been an enlightening and rewarding journey. We’re spotlighting a medley of talents, from passionate newcomers to seasoned professionals. Each one offers a fresh, evocative, and sometimes playful lens on our 2023 theme ‘Tipping Point’.” – Peter Cramer, TEDxSydney Film Curator.
