Submit your 2 minute green film!
I’ve come across an a (really) short film competition that’s being run by Doc/Fest Sheffield. They are asking you to upload your 2 minute film to myspace by February 22nd.
The rules are a bit vague but essentially they’re looking for a 2 minute film on the environment.
It could be about an obsession with recycling the smallest scrap of paper; always taking the bus instead of the car; maybe your mad neighbour has plans to build a kooky contraption for powering their house? Or, maybe you know someone who refuses to do anything to help save the planet. Tell us your story.
It sounds like they want it shot with your camera phone and it’s not clear if editing is allowed. In any case it’s a cool idea and should be fun. Plus there are prizes -
the winner of Mini Green Docs will have their film screened at the launch of the Sheffield Docfest Tour in association with the BFI on the 7th March, at The Barbican. They will also receive a free Delegate Pass to The Sheffield Docfest in November 2007. The winner and two runners up will be given tickets to the launch of the Sheffield Docfest Tour and will be invited to attend a VIP drinks reception.
Interestingly, I also learned that Doc/Fest is the world’s first carbon neutral film festival. They had a CO2 audit done (which is available for download from their site) and have procured sufficient carbon credits to offset the 83 tonnes of greenhouse gases said to be associated with the festival.
