BYU Final Cut Film Festival ()

Фестиваль начинается: 15 Ноябрь 2018      Фестиваль заканчивается: 17 Ноябрь 2018

The BYU Final Cut Film Festival is a student-produced, student-created film festival. Over a period of several evenings, we screen a collection of the best fiction films, documentaries, commercials, and animations that students create here at BYU. Final Cut is sponsored by the BYU Theatre and Media Arts department and the Student Film Association.

The purpose of this festival is to encourage students to create and watch meaningful and creative media. Festival submissions are open to all current BYU students.

1) Most importantly, As a student film festival, every film must be submitted by a current BYU-Provo student and feature a primarily student crew.

2) Although we don’t have a time restraint on films submitted, please note that submitting a longer film may decreases the probability that it will be screened since one of the main purposes of the festival is to showcase as many student films as possible. Films 15 minutes or longer are subject to being screened at a time and a place other than Final Cut. No film is guaranteed a Final Cut screening regardless of length or personal funding sources.

3) All film content will be evaluated in accordance to the BYU Department of Theatre and Media Arts Selection, Viewing, and Creating policy. You can access the TMA Viewing and Creation policy here.

4) Film content must follow the guidelines established in the Aims of a BYU Education and the BYU Honor Code and have cleared all rights to script, visual and audio content.

5) The film’s project leader (the submitter) can submit no more than 2 films for consideration
