Online competition site calls for shorts
February 6th, 2007 by Zsofia
Filmaka.com has announced a call for 1-3 minute films - this month’s topic is “Mistaken Identity.” Uploaded short films are juried by award-winning filmmakers including Werner Herzog, Neil LaBute, Paul Schrader and Wim Wenders.
Filmaka is a subscription-based online competition, which gives early-career filmmakers from around the world an opportunity to show their short films to industry professionals. The films are first voted on at the “entry level” (by fellow filmmakers), and then go to a jury for final selection. Submissions are accepted in 10 languages, and the annual grand prize is a feature film contract.
Narratives, documentaries, and music videos are welcome as long as the filmmaker owns rights to all content submitted. Visit http://www.filmaka.com to read the submission guidelines and terms & conditions.
