The festival was launched in 1998 by Laszlo and Sours, who had worked together on a live comedy variety show that included short comedy videos from Chicago filmmakers. The shorts were a hit and the two decided to develop a festival highlighting future Chicago-made comedy shorts. The fest premiered in July of 1998 at the Ivanhoe Theater and filled more than 750 seats during the evening, a major achievement for a first-year film festival.
