Call for Entries: Voices Mobile Film Festival

The Denver Film Society's Women+Film VOICES Film Festival and The MacSpa, announce the VOICES Mobile Film Festival to run in conjunction with VOICES Film Festival March 18 - March 23, 2014 at the Sie FilmCenter.

Sharing moments from our everyday lives via our mobile phones has become routine. Mobile phones are now in the hands of over six billion people worldwide. With billions of people on mobile phones, there are even more interesting stories to tell. VOICES Film Festival and The MacSpa encourage you to find inspiration in all that is around you, embrace the technology that has become so ubiquitous in our lives and make a mobile film!

The Concept:
Create a film no longer than two minutes, shot on a mobile device. Incorporate into your film the tag lines: Use Your Voice for Change or Our Voices Can Make a Difference. Subject matter can be about anything from a woman who inspires you, a women with a compelling story to tell or a social issue you're passionate about. Bottom line: if you have something you want to say...say it!

The Rules:
Shoot on a mobile device, such as the iPhone, Android, iPod Touch, iPad, etc
Final length may NOT EXCEED two minutes. You can use software of your choice to edit video, sweeten audio, color color correct or add special effects. You can use external microphones, wide-angle lens, tripod, dolly, etc. (this is encouraged). Misuse of copyrighted material is NOT PERMITTED under any circumstance, so use your best judgment.

A jury from The MacSpa will evaluate entries and the top 20 films will play as a shorts package during VOICES Film Festival (March 18 - 23, 2014). To view last years entries, visit: https://vimeo.com
