ENTER THE ONE-TAKE FILM CHALLENGE!

Working solo or with a maximum of 4 other filmmakers, produce a short film between 1 and 3 minutes using a single take. Each film submitted must consist of one continuous take — no hidden or obvious cuts. You can add sound design, titles, and color correction, but no cutting your footage. Any and all genres allowed!

Three (3) finalists films will be chosen from each category and submitted to the judging panel for Grand Prize consideration. We’ll also be hosting all qualifying entries for free on NFFTY Now, where everyone can vote for the Audience Choice Award!
