ERCATX Local Filmmakers' Showcase
The ERCATX Local Filmmakers' Showcase is an annual one-night program of experimental, avant-garde and non-narrative short films by Central Texas makers, organized by Experimental Response Cinema, an Austin film programmers collective founded in 2012. Recent editions have screened at Hyperreal Film Club each September; the eighth was September 17, 2026, with sliding-scale admission and a post-screening conversation with the artists. Makers submit recent work of 15 minutes or less through FilmFreeway for a $5 fee, and selected artists are paid, with 2026 fees supported in part by a City of Austin Nexus Grant.
