About this template
Made with film schools, festivals and photo clubs in mind, this Short Film Festival Selection Certificate helps you confirm that someone took part without starting from a blank page. Inknut Antiqua sets the title and Barlow carries the details, with a ticket-stub edge giving the page its character. It works just as well as a competition award.

How to customise it
Every word is editable, from the title to the signature line, including the programme, screening and runtime lines. Change the font or the size of any line if your text is longer than the sample. Prefer another look? Switch to the Projection Gold or Velvet Plum colour scheme, or pick any colour you like. It works in landscape or portrait, on A4 or US Letter, without you having to move anything. You can also upload a logo or a photo and place it anywhere on the page.
Printing tips
A cream, linen-textured paper of around 120 lb text (180 gsm) suits this classic layout. In the print dialog choose “Actual size” rather than “Fit”, so the border isn’t cropped. The background is dark, so a laser printer or a print shop will give the richest colour.
