Here's a cool idea, a film festival that never ends. The
shortnonstop festival is gearing up to be something pretty interesting and I would encourage any one with a good short to think about submitting.
The first film to win the grand prize of $1000 is the 3D animated
THE RED KITE. (check this out it's good)
Six times a year ten finalists will be selected for the grand prize, so shoot lots becasue the next deadline is October 5th. No specifics on what type of film you have to shoot, it can be a doc, sci-fi, reality-based...anything.
Here's all the technical details:
SHORTSNONSTOP is a year-round online mobile film festival that you can experience anytime or anyplace. It is a showcase of short films produced for mobile and online platforms . The running time of films submitted to SHORTSNONSTOP cannot exceed more than three minutes.
The CFC Worldwide Short Film Festival has been presenting the best in short filmmaking from around the world for more than 13 years. SHORTSNONSTOP is a natural extension of this legacy – and thanks to TELUS, one of Canada’s leading mobile carriers, this festival will celebrate truly innovative short films produced for the third screen. All filmmakers and videomakers are encouraged to submit their work for consideration.
Unlike other film festivals, SHORTSNONSTOP is a year round festival that accepts entries on an ongoing basis, directly at its website – www.shortsnonstop.com.
Six times a year, 10 finalists will be selected by our programmers for promotion and distribution by TELUS on its mobile networks in Canada. Our esteemed Jury of industry professionals will select one filmmaker in each prize period to be awarded a cash prize of $1000 (that’s six $1000 prizes in 2007/08.)
The deadlines for the SHORTSNONSTOP submissions are August 5, 2007; October 5, 2007; December 5, 2007; February 5, 2008; April 5, 2008 and June 5, 2008.
