Cin-cinema-tti

**Stage I submission deadline extended to 28th of October, 11 59pm**

Shoddy film-making is something we have all been subjected to since the day we were born. How many times have we left a cinema hall wondering what inspired us to watch the film we just did, complaining about the acting, the story, the screenplay, the direction itself? Considering the amount the Indian middle-class spends on cinema watching today, we wouldn’t mind killing a director or two, would we?

But what is good film-making? To find that out, MICANVAS presents ‘Cin-cinema-tti’, the short film-making contest. So if you think you have a director in you, read on!

The event will take place in two stages. As part of Stage I, the participants (in teams not exceeding 2 members each) need to send in a short live action film (not excedding 5 minutes) on any topic of their choice. The videos should be uploaded on YouTube and the link should be sent to us.

The entries must be mailed in by 11:59 PM on the 24th of October 2009. All entries must reach us at cincinematti.micanvas@gmail.com.

From the entries received for Stage I, six shortlisted teams will be announced on 27th of October and these will be invited on campus during MICANVAS 2009 and will be given a topic on which they are expected to make a short film. The teams will be asked to present their films to a panel of judges the next day, followed by a Q&A session.

After Stage II, the team that comes out on top will win Rs. 12500 and the runner-up will win Rs. 7500. This is your chance to prove to the world that there’s more to direction than what the present lot has to present!
