Final Call for all young filmmakers. Until June 15, 2014 Short films can be submitted!

Intervideo Filmproduktion has announced the third Intervideo Young Talent Award for young filmmakers with the theme Changes - Tomorrow, we will see.

Human history has always been full of contradictions – even changes that occurred during only one century are breathtaking. Plus, the pace of change has increased substantially over the last fifty years. Our planet and the forces of nature repeatedly put us in our place. The rich are amassing more and more wealth while the poor are being pushed to the sidelines.

Submissions can be made in four categories:

1. Documentaries.

2. Fiction/short films.

3. Animated films/graphic films.

4. Freestyle.

Competition objective:
The competition is a public platform for young filmmakers. It is intended to help provide support to the creative film work of young directing talent without being subject to economic constraints. The choice of topic should draw attention to the responsibility those working in media have in their role as disseminators of media content. We wish to challenge people to take part in the discourse about important contemporary issues.

Participants:
The competition is for those studying film-making or training on the job as well as recent entrants in the media profession who are no older than 30 when submitting a film. Judges will
focus on the overall effect, regardless of budget or technique chosen. The competition is international. Films in languages other than German or English must be submitted with German or English subtitles. In addition, the screenplay must also be submitted in written form.

Prizes:
The winners can look forward to cash prizes totalling to EUR 2,000.00 as well as various non-cash prizes.

Award ceremony:
The prizes will be awarded during the 50th anniversary of the Intervideo Filmproduktion in Mainz, Germany in September 2014. The winners of each respective category must be present at the award ceremony to be awarded.
