Berkshire Student Film Festival Seeks Submissions
WILLIAMSTOWN, Mass. — Images Cinema will present its inaugural regional student film festival over the first weekend in May.
"This open call offers a felicitous opportunity for young creators of the Berkshires to see their short films on the big screen," said Images intern and Williams College student Minnie Lerner.
The festival is seeking submissions from high school and college students at schools within a 25 mile radius of Images Cinema, including Williamstown, North Adams, Pittsfield, and Bennington, VT. Submissions are now open until Sunday, March 17 and can be made upon accessing the Images website (imagescinema.org).
Up to two primary creators may be credited per project, up to three works may be submitted per primary creator, and each primary creator must be a currently enrolled secondary school or college student. Films must run within 10 minutes' time and will be evaluated on the day of the festival by a robust panel of local industry professionals and film scholars.
Submitted films will be reviewed by a committee that will consist of students and Images Cinema staff. Jury prizes will be awarded by a jury of filmmaking and film curating professionals. An Audience Award will also be awarded.
