The Junior Film Fleadh runs from November 9th-12th and is eligible to filmmakers aged 7-18 years for the Future Filmmakers Short Film Programmes.
This provides a platform to students as the next generation of filmmakers in addition to a mix of workshops, script competition and panels.
Entries must be under 15min and made in either 2015 or 2016. Rough cuts are also accepted on DVD/blu ray/link/USB at the submission stage to allow for final edits to be made. All genres are accepted from Documentary, Animation, Drama, Action, Musical, Comedy, Sci-Fi, Horror, or any mix thereof. Irish language entries are also encouraged.
Once again, the Junior Film Fleadh in partnership with the Matthew Martino Benevolent Fund (MMBF) is delighted to announce its Rising Stars Awards for Future Filmmakers.
A prize will be offered in each of the 3 categories as follows:
- Future Filmmakers 1 is for beginner/primary filmmakers with the winners receiving a unique trophy
- Future Filmmakers programme 2 is for teens/secondary level filmmakers, and winners receive €75 and a certificate
- Future Filmmakers 3 for older teens and established young filmmakers will receive a certificate, €150 and the opportunity to either work on a film set in the UK (If over 18) or attend a film festival in the UK (To be confirmed but most likely either London Film Festival or Raindance). Travel costs will be subsided by MMBF.
