A Quickie at the State - 3 min film competition

The State Cinema and Wide Angle Tasmania are bringing shorts back to the big screen and are offering filmmakers the chance to get their films seen by 180 000 movie-goers. We are looking for Tasmania’s best films under 3 minutes to screen before the main features at Hobart’s iconic independent State Cinema.
 
All films 3 minutes or less, created by resident Tasmanians are eligible.  Up to six films will be selected for the State Cinema’s 2012 screening programme.  Selected films will win a free colour grade and sound mix with our sponsor Digital City Studios to help their film look and sound terrific on the big screen.
 
Our major winner will also win return flights, accommodation and a ticket to the opening night of St Kilda Film Festival in May, 2012.
 
To help filmmakers create their 3 minute short film, Wide Angle Tasmania is offering grants of $600 worth of equipment hire – enough to hire a professional camera, sound kit and rig – to six filmmakers who apply for support to get their idea made for this exciting competition.
 
All entries will be screened at the official launch and award ceremony at the State Cinema on Wednesday the 14th of March.
