Trust, at the source
Verified by AFIN
An AFIN award or nomination is a real line on a filmmaker's CV. Every one has a permanent, resolvable credential - so a producer, festival or grant panel can confirm it at its source instead of taking a claim on trust.
162 award wins · 535 nominations · 8 years, all verifiable
-
Every award has a permanent address
Each win and nomination since 2019 lives at its own
/verify/<id>page - it never moves, so a link on a CV keeps resolving. -
Served from the festival's own domain
The credential is published by AFIN, from afinfestival.com. That is what makes it verifiable: the proof lives at the issuer, not on the claimant's page.
-
Human and machine readable
Each credential renders as a page a person can read and carries a matching
/verify/<id>.jsona verifier's tooling can resolve.
What a credential looks like
Every AFIN line resolves to a page like this - the award, the film, the recipient and the official laurel, served from the festival's own domain.
