The CFC is a two-week filmmaking competition -- with a twist! Work together with other filmmakers and make your own short film in two weeks (May 17 - 31). Are you a writer in search of a shooter? An editor looking for a director? We help you find the people you need to execute your vision! On May 16th, we will release the Theme Quote at the Kickoff Party in LA. You'll have two weeks to shoot your film, but there's more: In order to qualify for prizes and screening, a collaborator will need to work on your project with you, and you'll have to help another filmmaker complete their film. On June 9th, we'll screen the CFC's strongest entries to a packed house of industry professionals in LA --and our esteemed judges. After the screening, we announce the winners and hand out over $20,000 in cash and prizes! While the CFC staff is based in LA, you don’t have to be in LA to participate. The registration fee is $55 for Filmmakers and $40 for Collaborators, but until May 3rd, you can take advantage of Early Bird pricing at $40 for Filmmakers and $25 for Collaborators.
