REEL TO REAL SHORT FILM COMPETITION 2010

Posted by admin in News
“It’s Not About Me!”

Short film makers are invited to submit entries 10 minutes or less in length, in any genre, to the Reel to Real Short Film Competition.

Entries must in some way reflect the theme of the 2010 competition, which is 'It's Not About Me!', in a way that, however obliquely, touches on or sets people thinking about some of the big questions raised by the way of the Buddha.
 

We welcome drama, documentary, animation, or combinations of all three, and we look forward to creative, provocative and ingenious ways of approaching and exploring the theme.


Closing date for entries is May 3, 2010.  The screening of finalists will be on May 15, 2010, 2-4pm, as part of the Reel to Real Sydney Buddhist Film Festival, held by the Buddhist Festival Month and Zen Open Circle, at the Footbridge Theatre, Sydney University (Parramatta Road, Glebe).

Where and when to submit:
·        Entries should be postmarked NO LATER than Monday, May 3rd 2010.

Awards:
