Last year, Discovery channel held a 2-minute maximum short film contest for all filmmakers, with the grand prize being a trip for 2 to Toronto to attend some conference (I think). My sister, a friend, and I planned out some ideas to film and enter the contest but we never got it underway and we didn’t end up entering.
A few days ago, I saw an commerical on the Discovery channel for the contest this year, and though I’m not as determined or excited about it as I was last year — plus the deadline is on September 15, which is really soon — I think it would be interesting to try and make a film. What do you think?
