The thirteenth edition of the Student Film Festival FENACIES Uruguay opened its inscriptions on April 10th, and will remain open until June 10th. As every year, all the students from all over the world (from Primary to University) can register their short films totally free, which will be displayed in Montevideo from September 4th to 10th.

FENACIES is an organization founded in 2011 that started with the aim of creating a cinema festival specifically to youth, where competition would be fair and creativity and effort of these would be valued.

At first, the festival was avowed of cultural interest by the Ministry of Education and Culture, educational interest by the Primary Education Council, and tourist interest by the Ministry of Tourism and Sport. Furthermore, in 2015 UNESCO declared it of educational and cultural interest.

The main aim of the festival is to strengthen the audiovisual education between the youngest, and through the short films realization they can express their ideas so that then they can see reflected on the big screen.

During the week, the short films that are selected will be shown in a public and state cinema. On September 11th will be announced the winners in the closing ceremony.

Awards will be confirmed in August.

Terms

All the students, from Primary to University, and also Amateur, can take part of it. There are categories to compete:

-E) Amateur


Participants

- Each partaker could show all the films he/she wants.

- There will be 4 genres: fiction, documentary, music video and cartoon.

- The theme is totally free.

- The short films must be enrolled through the website www.fenacies.org, where students will have time until June 10th and the films can´t exceed 15 minutes.

- Files in 720 or lower quality will not be accepted, but neither will 4k or higher quality files, ONLY IN 1920 X 1080.

- The image format (aspect ratio) must necessarily be 16:9, so short films recorded vertically, in 1:1 or in 4:3 will not be selected.

- In the event that the language of the short film is not Spanish, it must have subtitles (in the same file, not in a separate file). On the other hand, we suggest that if the dialogues are not well heard, subtitles are incorporated. If the file of a short film whose original language is not Spanish and does not include subtitles, it will be automatically disqualified.

- The jury is going to do the short film selection that will be announced in our web site (fenacies.com) and facebook fan page (facebook/fenacies).
