Submissions must be original and created by the filmmakers own hand.
In addition to the $5000 first prize, second prize is $1500 and third prize is $500.
Joe Weasel, Co-Founder and Managing Editor of ThePalestra.com says, “We are so thrilled to offer this contest to young filmmakers out there. There is so much creative energy among our viewers and we want to tap into that energy and find the next Tarantino or Mendes! This is a perfect way to stoke those flames.
