6th Mindanao Film Festival Call for Submissions

The Mindanao Film Festival 2010 is calling for submissions for feature-length films, short films, and documentaries made by Mindanawon filmmakers or films about, related to, or shot in Mindanao.

Students may also participate by submitting their films in the Student Short Film Category (High School & College) or the Student Documentary Category.

All genres are welcome including comedy, drama, experimental, and animation, as long as the film has been completed anytime within October 2009 to September 2010, and has not been screened in the previous Mindanao Film Festival.

Those interested must submit the following:
a. Completed entry form
b. DVD screener copy of entry film

The Guerrilla Filmmaking Competition is an open-theme and open-genre competition where participating filmmakers “race” to produce their 5-15 minute narrative short films during the same time period and are given a strict deadline. Emphasizing the essence of guerrilla-filmmaking, this category of the Mindanao Film Festival has a special award given to the film with the best production value (highest quality for the lowest budget) – the Red Fist Award.

Those interested to compete in the Guerrilla Filmmaking Competition must submit the following:
a. Completed entry form
b. Synopsis of the 5 to 15-minute short film they intend to produce for the competition
c. Samples of film/video works

Deadline for submissions for all categories is September 25, 2010.

All requirements must be sent to:

Mindanao Film & Television Development Foundation, Inc.
c/o Alchemy of Vision & Light Productions
#59-B Aala Bldg.,F. Iñigo (Anda) St.,
Davao City, Philippines
