From filmmakers:

We are looking for films created within the past year by emerging filmmakers. We will consider submissions of any length.

For our purposes, an emerging artist is under 30, has made a personal commitment to a career in the arts, is not yet recognized with professional associations, and is in need of professional development and exposure.

Submission Guidelines:

Please submit your films as digital files (any file type, any resolution or compression).

There is no entry fee.
