COPYRIGHTS - We cannot accept any THIRD-PARTY music, images & photos or graphics in your video without the correct licensing specific to your film. Licensing for music is tricky and can be confusing depending on how the music is used in your film. One license may not work for all the ways you use music in your film, such as background, transitions, etc. Music is not the only proprietary license you may need, such as visual branded items. It's best to be informed before you begin production.
Youth entrants must be between the ages of 10 and 17 years, parents or guardians are asked to include their name and the name of the entrant they are submitting for on the application form. This category gives youth a platform to use their storytelling techniques and abilities. Capturing video with smartphones (all rules apply) is an incredible boost for confidence for the youngest members of society and the film community in general. Youth can use smartphone filmmaking to realize their potential and stand out as innovative filmmakers.
No vulgar, offensive, pornographic, or nudity will be accepted and the submission will be disqualified.
Submissions are now closed.
