The Santa Barbara International Film Festival (SBIFF) is an eleven-day film festival held in Santa Barbara, California since 1986 in February annually. The festival boasts screenings of over 200 feature films and shorts from different countries and regions. SBIFF also includes celebrity tributes, industry panels and education programs.

Kirk Douglas Award

The annual Kirk Douglas Award for Excellence in Film has been awarded since 2006 to a lifelong contributor to cinema through their work in film industry.[18] The inaugural award of 2006 was awarded to Kirk Douglas himself in Santa Barbara International Film Festival's fundraiser ceremony at Goleta, California.[19][20][21][22][23][24][25]

Maltin Modern Master Award

The award, first named as Modern Master Award was established in 1995 to honor accomplishments of individuals in the motion picture industry for enriching culture. It was re-named the Maltin Modern Master Award in 2015 to recognize film critic, author and historian Leonard Maltin's long association with the festival.[26][27][28]

10-10-10 Student Film Competition

One feature of the film festival is the 10-10-10 competition.[34] Students enrolled at Santa Barbara area high schools and colleges are invited to submit either a 10-page sample of writing for the Screenwriting portion of the competition, or a five-minute sample of their best filmmaking efforts for the directing portion. Ten writers are selected to write one 10-minute script each; the scripts are then matched with the ten filmmakers. Those students then have ten days to shoot and edit the completed ten-minute short film, during the ten days of the festival. Films are screened and winners are announced on closing night. A selection committee consisting of representatives from each school, Industry professionals and SBIFF representatives select the participants.[35]

The program was extended into a summer camp where area youths from schools and local Boys & Girls Clubs learned filmmaking skills.[36]
