About TikiKiti

We Love Indie
Music Producers!


Celebrating the indie fan-made and unofficial music video producer - that’s who we are.

Have fan-made, or unofficial music videos?

We rate the best fan-made and unofficial music video and award the best ones with the Barclay Award.

If you want, we will promote your videos!

Because successful producers make great fan-made and unofficial music videos.

How We Rate?

We rate videos on three criteria: production quality, creativity/performance and editing.

Production

Production

Cinematography, lighting, camera movements, sets, locations — all of these make up what we call “Production Quality.” And it doesn’t mean a big budget. It’s more about great ideas and inspired execution.

Creativity & Performance

Creativity/Performance

We put these two together because they are so linked especially since so many
videos involve acting, singing and dancing. Standing out in the crowd requires creativity, energy and originality.

Production

Editing

Cutting on motion, guiding eye movement, color timing... this is where good
videos come together. Good editing is more than just cutting on the beat, and it
helps good ideas and performances shine.

A Slice of Life

Sometimes called observational cinema, mainly without a narrator's voice-over. The vérité style comes naturally to many as a way to just record what is happening right in front of them. It combines improvisation with use of the camera to unveil truth or highlight subjects hidden behind reality.

The Faces of TKIFF 2023

Here are the results of our 2023 TikiKiti International Film Festival. We started with 54 submissions. Since we are giving out two awards this year, one for a traditional, or in-real-life (IRL) video; and one for AI animation, the final 16 included eight from each category. With that established we still ended up with the ten final videos you see here.
