Step 3 - Confirmation and Poster
Check YES to confirm that you have read all the requirements and that you understand that IF you have NOT met the requirements, your film will NOT be considered for screening at the 10 DAY FILM CHALLENGE awards day
*
YES
Check YES to confirm that (a) YOUR CHARACTER appears in the film by first and last name. (b) the character's BACKSTORY is clearly identified (c) the LINE is verbatim (d) the PROP appears and (e) your film was made in the correct GENRE. If you can NOT click 'Yes', serious point reduction and/or disqualification may result.
*
YES
If you used the optional CINEMATIC TECHNIQUE, you MUST identify the EXACT TIME in your film that the technique appears (label as MINUTES:SECONDS. Ex: 2:43)
*
Check YES to confirm that your film is 3-4 minutes (not including opening 'slates', but does include your opening title sequence; ending credits can be additional 15 seconds)?
*
YES
ULTIMATELY, your TOTAL running time of the film can be 4:21. You needed 5 seconds of a slate at the beginning + your 4 minute film + 15 seconds for scrolling credits + 1 second of black at the end. That all adds up to a maximum of 4:21.
Do you have the proper 'slates' at the beginning of your film (see letter "O" in the filmmaking rules)?
*
YES
You needed 5 total seconds of a slate (over black) prior to the start of your film. It should be 1 second of black + 3 seconds of a title slide with your team name, film name, and genre + 1 second of black. THEN, your actual movie begins.
Have you watched your entire film once you EXPORTED it, prior to submitting it to your teacher?
*
YES
There have been times where a student EXPORTS the film, but they really only exported a single clip, or the export didn't play properly. Watch your film after the export process. Whatever YOU submit to your teacher is what WE receive. If the film is unwatchable for any reason, it will be disqualified.
UPLOAD movie poster here. Be sure to upload a JPEG / JPG. No other formats please.
