(VIC) Jump Cut is on again and is calling for entries.
Young people aged 13 - 25 across Australia are invited to submit short films for screening throughout the Bayside Film Festival. Jump Cut gives young filmmakers an opportunity to screen their works alongside professional filmmakers.
Young filmmakers can submit short films in any genre up to 10 minutes in length. All works submitted will be subject to a competitive selection process, with the strongest films showcased throughout the four-day event. In addition to this, members of the Australian Film Critics Association will determine which films will be awarded an industry prize. Films will be judged in two separate age group categories 13 -18 (secondary students) and 19 - 25 (tertiary students). Films must have been completed within the last two years (2008 onwards).
Selected films will screen at Bayside Film Festival 14 – 17 July 2010 at Palace Cinema, Brighton Bay, Melbourne.
