Call for Submissions: YoungCuts Film Festival 2011
The YoungCuts Film Festival is looking for Great Short Films by the World's Best Young Filmmakers (25 and under).
Started in 2001 as the Toronto International Teen Film Festival, the festival changed its name (and increased its age limit) in 2005 and moved to Montreal in 2006.
Every year, the festival selects it's Top 100 short films from more than a thousand submissions from more than 30 countries.
We present awards in multiple categories including the High Fidelity HDTV award for Best Documentary, the
Tribute.ca award for Best Canadian Film, the
EnPrimeur.ca award for Best Quebec Film, the
MyFilmmaker.com award for Best Short Short (film under 5 minutes) and the
TextbookVideos.com award for Best Educational Film amongst many other prizes.
Part of our larger mandate is to find and create paying film projects for young filmmakers, like the films we did for Canadian Heritage's
Canada's Got Treasures! project.We do this through our sister site
www.MyFilmmaker.com. If you need to hire a filmmaker or if you are a filmmaker who needs to be hired, come give us a try!
Take a look at
Last Year's Winners! And the
Top 100 films from last year!
