Last Deadline For The Corona Fastnet Short Film Festival
Go »
The Corona Fastnet Short Film Festival seeks to encourage young filmmakers to pick up their cameras for the first time, what they look for is imaginative solutions to inevitable production budget limitations. In other words, if you don’t have enough money to hire the latest camera, lighting and sound recording equipment, let alone the best actors in the country, then don’t write a script that depends on these factors. As simple as it may sound, a good film always starts with a good script. A good script is one that both takes account of the limitations of the budget and seeks to rise above these limitations imaginatively.
Regular Entry is until January 16th and costs €25
Late Entry is from January 16th, 2015 until January 31st, 2015 and costs €30
The last and extended entry is from February 1st, 2015 and February 14th, 2015 and costs €50
