eGarage Productions in association with Long Island City Arts Open is pleased to announce the Long Island City Weekend Film Project. Starting Friday, May 13th at 7pm until Sunday May 15th teams of your choosing will write, perform, film, and edit your very own 10 minute short film over the course of two days (48 hours).
When you arrive on Friday you will be given an envelope with your genre of film along with a topic and the main rule of your film project. Your finished films will then air as a part of the Long Island City Arts Open weekend May 20th - 22nd. Every film entered in the contest will have their film shown at the Astoria/LIC International Film Festival in October. Winners will be decided by the audiences and plaques will be given to the top films.
Each team that places will also have their film available for download on the eGarage website with a chance to receive on-going revenue sharing. There will also be plaques given to Best Director, Best Actor, Best Actress, Best Writing, and Best Cinematography; however no cash prizes will be given in these categories.
Start getting your teams of actors, writers, director, producers, and film-makers together for a fabulous, lack-of-sleep weekend. If you are interested in applying for the festival please email Brooke at submissions@egarage.tv for more information.
