One Minute Movie

This year, we are also launching a brand new competition within the Festival itself.  Allow us to introduce you to One Minute Movie.

The Premise

We’re challenging film makers from all over the world to make the best movie possible that lasts exactly sixty seconds. Selected films will be screened throughout the festival, and on our web services, while the best film chosen by our panel of judges will have the honour of being this year’s opening film.

Submissions for our One Minute Movie competition are free, and the submissions will be accepted from May 12th 2011 until January 31st 2012.

* Please notice the change in deadline. We have been in discussion with a number of schools and universities and decided that it would benefit a lot of students if we extended the deadline into the autumn term. For this reason we are please to announce that the deadline for OMM has now been advanced until the end of January. Best of luck!

Full guidelines and rules are available to read here, and they can be downloaded, along with the submission form below:
