"The Indian short films and documentary film makers are constantly accessing the internet to reach out to various film festivals on various types of mobile devices, whether at home or on the go. As a result, this transition required us to take a fresh and innovative view of how our users are likely to interact with our website," Mohan Das, Festival Director, LISFF 2013 said.

“Our new graphical interface is a step towards making it easy for those who have little time to go through each section. Also, with a growing segment of users who access websites from tablet and mobiles, we wanted to give them a big and colourful picture of the festival keeping in tune with our theme line “Let’s go BIG with shorts “. We believe, the steps we've taken will enhance the overall user experience with the content and imagery they would desire to see on the screen during the festival. This in turn is going to give them the added impetus needed to push themselves to the cinema halls during the festival for a wonderful cinematic experience," he added.
