The First Annual Small Time Film Festival is for seasoned filmmakers, first-time filmmakers, and everyone in between. The only requirement is that your video entry is 60 seconds or less and follows this simple prompt:
60 seconds that change the future.
Shoot it on an iPhone. Break out your grandma's 16mm camera. Record a Zoom Call. Film it on an expedition to uncharted places or film it in your bathroom. Inside, outside, with music, without. We don't care. We just want to see your idea come to life.
We will be donating ALL PROCEEDS as well as a match to The Lighthouse Mission a non-profit which has been helping hundreds of people without a home stay fed and warm during this challenging time.
FIRST PRIZE: $250 in your pocket, plus a match to a charity of your choice in your name - PLUS a $250 voucher to rent any gear you want from Bellingham Grip. (If you aren't in the seattle area this can be substituted for a $100 gift card to borrow lenses)
SECOND PRIZE: $100 in your pocket, plus a match to a charity of your choice in your name.
THIRD PRIZE: $50 gift certificate to your favorite restaurant or watering hole. You name it.
And trophies, always trophies.
