One of the primary motives of the ICE Digital Short Film Festival is cinematic outreach. With the help of the Festival, the ICE community will let all film lovers enjoy a wide array of short films covering an array of genres from India and abroad. This unique awareness-generating festival is also poised to be a competitive celebration of short films as a creative medium. Thus it will be an open forum for anyone and everyone related to short film making to interact with each other. To take it to the next level from here, the ICE Community will undertake several endeavours after the festival closes and keep the fire burning for the better interests of the short film community.

Here are some of them :
ICE will support the making of short films financially, with the help of sponsors and also alternative type of funding, and also technically, by furnishing production equipment and personnel.

ICE will function as a link between the filmmakers and the Foundations, Trusts, Corporations, Business Houses, Companies, Firms and Generous Individuals that are interested in extending sponsorships, grants and donations with the motive to cover various expenditures required for screening selected short films in India and abroad.

ICE will organize workshops, discourses, seminars and other forms of interaction within the filmmaking community and the audience. The motive of such interactions would be to familiarize the short film fraternity with each other and also making the audience more aware about film culture and fraternity.

ICE will also promote talented filmmakers, technicians, artists and other related personnel for bagging projects and participating in various activities related to filmmaking. In this way ICE would provide a jumpstart for them in getting ahead in their respective interests.
