Mobile Film Festivals – Short film festival with a dose of ‘mobile’


Mobile phone film festivals around the world have been around as early as 2004, however Mobile Screenfest 2010 is the first of its kind in Australia. Entering into this competition could make your masterpiece a part of history!
If you are interested in the idea of film festivals shot on mobiles then you should look at some of the other mobile festivals around the world. Some big examples are:
 Mofilm USA: One of the biggest in the world with large prize pools and Hollywood talent.
 10 Second Film Festival: Yep you guessed it, all of the films entered had to be 10 seconds or less and the festival could be viewed on a mobile.
 Pocket Films Festival, Japan: An international festival said to be one of the first.

These are just a few of the many mobile film festivals held around the world. Mobile filmmaking has become a new phenomenon and will change the way we view film and technology. Using mobile technology shows that anyone can participate and ‘user generated content’ (where the audience makes the film) is on the rise.

So give it a try and see what you can achieve and enter Australia’s First Mobile Screenfest 2010! Tomorrow we will show you some tips for shooting videos on your mobile and taking photographs! Make sure you submit your entry by 22nd August 2010 at www.mobilescreenfest.com.au.
