7pm TRU Alumni Theatre
The Kamloops Film Society (KFS) is pleased to announce its upcoming 5th Annual Kamloops Independent Short Short (KISS) Film Competition, 2012. As part of its mission to support and encourage local filmmaking, the KFS stages an annual KISS competition, which is open to film entries from all independent filmmakers living in Kamloops and the surrounding region of Interior BC.
The "short short" in the KISS name connotes the temporal nature of the competition entries, which must be 5 minutes in duration or less. According to the KISS competition guidelines, all entries must be showable to all audiences, since children will be in attendance at the competition screening, which is a free event open to the public. The deadline for submitting entries to the KISS competition is May 10th, and the screening of the films and awarding of prizes will be on May 17th location to be determined.
The prizes for the competition winners will be as follows:
1st prize $500
2nd prize $250
3rd prize $100
TNRD prize for best portrayal of Thompson Nicola Regional District $100
Youth Prize (18 years and under) $100
Audience Favourite $100 MovieMart gift card
Filmmakers can drop off their entry (in DVD format) at MovieMart (New Location 444 St. Paul St.) in downtown Kamloops on or before May 10th, 2012. All entries must include an application form (Download Here) and a $10 entry fee.
The KFS wishes all the filmmakers who enter the KISS competition the best of luck, and looks forward to seeing all of their creative ideas and expressions! In addition, as always, the KFS thanks the many volunteers, film-lovers, and sponsors who make the annual KISS competition possible.
