The first in the series is Marshall Axani, Writer/Director for The Light of Family Burnam, which won 7 of 10 awards in the VSFF’s professional short film category.

The next interview is with Angelina Cantada, Producer/Director of Let’s Play Boccia!, which won the Women In Film & Television (WIFTV) Award for Best Female Director in a Professional Short Film, and only cost $250 to make! The subject of Angelina’s film is the Canadian Paralympic Boccia team, and she went on to compete in the 2010 Crazy 8s film competition, among producing other projects.

To submit a film, please proceed to our submission page here.

Don’t forget that our deadline is Sunday, August 1 at 6PM (PST) and we are no longer taking in drop-in entries, so please mail them in well in advance!

Download the poster or e-flyer on our Media Centre page and spread the word to your film friends!
