Filmaka "Wildcard" contest
The response and feedback to the first year of Filmaka was tremendous... so much so that Filmaka are now are running a "Wildcard" contest.
The competition is open, with no specified genre or theme. The clip should be 1 to 3 minutes. You have total creative freedom but remember that you must tell a great story and create memorable characters."Wildcard" begins December 1st and ends December 28th. The winners will be announced January 6th.
One winner will be chosen by Filmaka members, and the other winner will be chosen by Filmaka staff. These two winners will be allowed to compete in the final Director's competition in January.
Filmaka.com is a online competition, judged by award winning filmmakers including Werner Herzog, Neil LaBute, Paul Schrader and Wim Wenders, and founded by leading independent producers and financiers. Filmmakers have a new chance to enter each month, and submissions are accepted in 10 different languages.
