Electric City Film Festival
A competition to spotlight downtown Anderson in film, the Electric City Film Festival will bring video and film makers and others to downtown Anderson. Open to any film maker, the films will be judged in three different genres – comedy, documentary and drama. Submissions can be by individuals or teams.
Entering: Films will be due (postmarked by) July 5. Judging will take place in two ways – online by popular vote and by a panel of judges. Films are eligible for both prizes. Prizes will be awarded to first place and honorable mention. Entry fees are $10 per film. Film makers may submit multiple films, but cannot submit the same film to multiple categories.
All accepted films will be put on the web site for judging. Web site visitors will register to vote on films and can only vote once in each of the three categories. Film makers agree to give Electric City Film Festival first rights for broadcast and the right to use any part of or all of the films in future advertisements for the Film Festival.
Judges will determine the top five films in each category by July 22. During the week of July 25, all films will be shown in different downtown venues starting at 7 p.m. and running through 10 p.m.
A final presentation of winning entries in each category will be held on July 30. First place in each category and an honorable mention will be awarded for both judge’s selections and people’s choice.
