Call for Entries: 5th Annual Rhode Island International Film Festival Screenplay Competition
The BROOKS PHARMACY Providence/Rhode Island International Film Festival™ for
independent film and video is calling for Screenplay Entries for its 5th
annual festival, to take place on August 8-12, 2001 in historic Providence,
and throughout the state of Rhode Island.
The Festival is accepting screenplays in all genres. Screenplays must have
been written after 1997. The Providence/Rhode Island International Film
Festival is one of only three broadly focused, independent festivals in New
England accepting works of any type (dramatic, documentary, experimental), on
any subject matter, and in any genre.
Screenplays will be judged by a jury of distinguished panel of industry
professionals, peers and film fans. The Grand Prize winner will have segments
of the work produced during the Master Class on Production which features the
participation of a noted director. The Grand Prize winner will also receive a
cash prize of $2,500. Last year, filmmaker/screenwriter Jonny Kurzman of
London, England took Grand Prize with his "Night of Life".
Screenplays will be judged on creativity, innovation, vision, originality and
the use of language. The key element is that of communication and how it
complements and is transformed by the language of film. The deadline for
screenplay submissions is April 1, 2001.
