Free Range Film Festival - 30 Seconds of Fame

Free Range Film Festival encourages work of any genre or medium, so whether your 30 second film is a teaser for a longer film, an infommercial, an advert, a promo, a Vox Pop, whatever you come up with send it in for the chance to win some great prizes. Free Range encourages entrants from Interstate and Over-Seas as this year they are streaming the screening night live on the Free Range Festival website.

Other fun things to do with the festival is the People's Choice Film voted on YouTube, and the chance to have your work screened on Channel 31, Victoria's community television station.

Best thing is that entry is free.

Free Range TV Film Festival

I can't believe how time buzzes by but it is that time of year again for submitting your work to the Free Range TV Film Festival for 2008. The theme this time around is make a 30-second film that captures the buzz in your community, so whether it be the trip down to the letterbox in the morning to grumble over the bills or a commercial promoting the wild fun world of your local playground, or the 30-second run down to the milk-bar to fetch milk before the coffee goes cold, this is the festival for it.

It is also a great way to get involved with Northern Access Television, you can also get your friends to vote for your film online and you could both win a prize in the People’s Choice Award. Best of all this festival is not only free but held at a cool establishment known as The Noise Bar in Brunswick, broadcasters of Noise TV. You film doesn't have to be local though, entries accepted from all around the world.

Go to their YouTube Channel and check out the previous winners and entrants.
