For its 15th edition A Night of Horror International Film Festival is excited to announce a new creative competitive component to the festival, open to Australian residents only.
Australian-based filmmakers are invited to submit to CUT!, the inaugural teaser trailer competition, sponsored by Panavision Australia.
Winning trailer wins $3500 worth of hire from Panavision Australia and a one (1) hour informal consultation with competition judges via Zoom.
Frivolous or serious, you decide. But make sure you have fun doing it!
Trailer can be either:
• a proof-of-concept for a feature or short film (whether it be a single scene or a montage)
• a teaser to a faux/fake feature or short.
Trailer must be no longer than three (3) minutes in duration, including any on-screen credits.
There is no restriction on when the trailer was made, provided it has not previously been exhibited to the general public.
Registration closes July 14th, 2023. Submission deadline closes July 31st, 2023.
Five finalists will be selected and screened as part of the festival’s closing night awards ceremony, and the winner announced thereafter.
Judges for the inaugural competition are Andrew Traucki (THE REEF, BLACK WATER) and Brett Garten (RED CHRISTMAS, PUB: THE MOVIE).
