Your Film Festival Opens Now!

Thursday, February 2nd, 2012 by

Today is the day! Your Film Festival, You Tube’s challenge to filmmakers the world over to tell a compelling and deeply enriching story in 15 minutes or less, is now taking submissions on what is sure to be the most innovative approach in online video cinema to date.

The details are simple: create a video cinematic experience of almost any genre (refer to the contest rules for any exclusions) and make it 15 minutes or less, submitting it after to the channel to be enjoyed by millions upon millions of viewers. Each film will be judged by the masses and the 10 finalists will be granted a spot at the Venice Film Festival where they will compete for the coveted grand prize: a chance to undergo a new work that will be produced by Ridley Scott and his team (as well as a $500,000 grant).

With the innovations that technology has allowed in video cinema, independent film is taking on the conversation of storytelling in new and compelling ways; a breath of fresh air in a seemingly murky pool of samey singularity.

Visit the Your Film Festival You Tube channel to watch the announcement by Ridley Scott and enter for your chance to make your stories come to life!
