CALL FOR ENTRIES: Fresh Takes National Youth Filmfest

  • SUBMIT YOUR FILM VIA WITHOUTABOX


    Next Deadline: September 1st, 2013. Submit Your Films Today!


    This film festival is for youth 22 and under. Get  your creative on and  spend an inspiring weekend in the heart of  Silicon Valley at our first  national youth filmfest. We’ll be  screening films by the best young  filmmakers from throughout the  country. “Best in Fest” prize is $5,000.      


    What makes FTNYF unique is that in addition to honoring the best  films in five categories we also offer a “people’s choice” award for the   film that  earns the most votes from our website polling. Each vote  costs $1.00.  The entrant who achieves the most votes will receive 100-percent of   the money total he/she raises. Part of making films is   financing them  and this is a fun lesson in creating your own resources.  Start  building your e-mail list of friends NOW! To participate in the   “People’s Choice” competition you must upload your video to either  Vimeo.com or YouTube.com and email the link to pete@freshtakes.net
