Campus MovieFest

Up to Crews
Like a story from a classic Hollywood film, Campus MovieFest (CMF) came from humble beginnings before becoming the world's largest student film festival and the premier outlet for today's greatest student filmmakers. In 2000, four friends attending Emory University set out to make a difference by providing Apple laptops, camcorders, and a week for students to translate their stories onto film. More than 100,000 students around the world have since participated, receiving all the necessary technology and training for free, thanks to corporate partners. The 2007 - 2008 CMF Tour includes 35 events nationwide featuring 50,000 student-made movies, red carpet finales and over $400,000 in prizes. Additional information and thousands of CMF films are available online at www.campusmoviefest.com.

Campus MovieFest is coming to Los Angeles in Oct!

How
the Event Works


1. Students from participating
schools: just grab a group of friends, hallmates,
teammates, or enemies, and sign up online before
the deadline or all spots are filled.
Free registration will begin shortly, so stay tuned.


2. On the Launch Date,
you'll get an Apple laptop, digital camcorder, and
a week to make your own amazing five-minute-or-less
movie. You can even get a handset from AT&T to shoot
behind-the-scenes footage.


3. During the week, we'll
provide all the training and support you need. Just
stop by Campus MovieFest Central to get all your
questions answered.


4. The movies are turned
in and judged by a panel of students and staff from
your school. The top movies are showcased at a huge
Campus MovieFest Finale celebration at your
school -- red carpet and all -- and all movies are
featured in highlights for the packed crowd to see.
Students walk away with thousands of dollars in prizes.


5. Movies from each school
move on to the regional and international grand
finales with even bigger prizes and more community-wide
attention... maybe even on AT&T mobile phones
or in-flight on Virgin America.
