VAFF's THE MIGHTY ASIAN MOVIEMAKING MARATHON 2008 - deadline Aug 8


The Vancouver Asian Film Festival presents the 2008 Mighty Asian Moviemaking Marathon

Choose a genre. Pitch your story. Make the film.
Free your creativity, keep it real, and have a blast making movies this summer! For the fourth year running, the Mighty Asian Moviemaking Marathon raises the stakes.

MAMM is 17 days this year – running from August 10 to 26!

WHAT’S NEW FOR MAMM 2008?

Compulsory elements? What compulsory elements? Choose your genre, (almost) any genre, or combination of genres. That’s it. Pitch your story to a panel of industry professionals, just as you would have to if you were actually trying to get a film made (which you are). Shoot and edit a 9-minute film, a full minute shorter than in previous MAMMs – because less, is really more. Get awards (if you place in the top three) that help you develop as a filmmaker, and see a film project through from start to finish. Have your awarded film shown on television, aside from being screened at the West Coast’s premier Asian film festival. You just might get your own sixty seconds of fame by being interviewed by the media, while you’re at it.
