STILL TIME (JUST!) TO VOTE FOR YOUR FAVOURITE:
Thank you to everyone who took the time to participate. What we lack in quantity this year, we more than make up for in quality. And once again, your generosity and creativity are the beating heart of our Performing Arts output.
To celebrate your efforts, we have a new award category this year: the PEOPLE'S CHOICE! All you have to do is watch this year's submissions HERE, and then vote for your favourite HERE. The winner of the PEOPLE'S CHOICE ROSSCAR will be announced at our very own awards ceremony on Thursday 11th November!
But remember, the theme is just a starting point: you are free to interpret it in any way you wish, just as long as you can tell your story in 120 seconds. Your film can be funny, scary, silly, romantic, thought-provoking or simply downright strange. Let your imagination run wild...
The Festival is open to EVERYBODY! You can work solo, or team up with friends/relatives/the family pet.
You can shoot on a camera, phone, ipad - or indeed anything else that will capture an image (Fisher Price PXL2000???).
You can edit on whatever software you have at your disposal. Excellent FREE options include HitFilm Express, Davinci Resolve and Lightworks. Help will be available for those who have never edited before.
