KMC Forums - Star Wars Fan Film Awards Accepting Entries Now

Submit to the Film Side of the Force -- Star Wars Fan Film Awards
The Star Wars Fan Film Awards are in their fourth year, and AtomFilms, partners with Lucasfilm in the awards, is accepting entries for the 2005 competition now. Filmmakers with Star Wars spoofs, parodies, and documentaries of the fan experience will find everything they need to enter their film at AtomFilms' site.

Filmmakers in the competition will compete for cash prizes, and for one of the rare Star Wars Fan Film trophies featuring golden droids C-3PO and R2-D2. The maker of the top film will have the exceptional honor of receiving the George Lucas Selects Award, chosen by the filmmaker himself, plus a $2000 cash prize.

Those who enter the Star Wars Fan Film competition could find themselves, and their films, in the spotlight. Finalists in past competitions have been viewed over 10,000,000 times at AtomFilms' Fan Film Awards website, and this year's event is expected to attract both a record number of submissions and a record audience.

The 2005 awards will be presented at Star Wars Celebration III, in the Indiana Convention Center in Indianapolis. Scheduled for Friday night, April 22 in the Sagamore Ballroom, the award ceremony will honor the top films of the competition, and feature presenters from Lucasfilm, as well as special presenters from the film industry.

So does anyone think they will be trying out for this? I sure as heck would (With no chance of winning of course) if I had a video camera and more time and more $$$$.
