The Brighthand Mobile Film Festival (BMFF) is a two-day event (March
23-24) showcasing some of the most creative and interesting
made-for-mobile content designed for display on small-format wireless
cell phones, smartphones and communications-enabled devices.
The event takes place at CTIA Wireless 2010 next month in Las
Vegas. CTIA Wireless is the premier mobile and wireless gathering in the U.S.,
and is expected to attract 40,000 or more attendees this year. This
means your mobile film entry may be a part of an exciting showcase and
competition that will be included in CTIA's emerging technology
pavilion and screened for thousands of people in the wireless and
mobile industries.
Entries should run about three-minutes or so, and can be in
virtually any format. Filmmakers may submit entries in six different
content categories: Comedy, Drama, Music, Animation, Documentary and
Series. BMFF entries will be judged by a panel of experts, who will
rate the ultra-short films on such things as creativity, entertainment
value, 'real world' utility and best use of currently-available mobile
technology.
Judges include Ed Hardy, Editor of Brighthand.com, Judi
Babcock, producer at Friendly Fire Entertainment, Vancouver, B.C.; and
Beau Buck, founder and CEO of mFlix and BigDigit, Inc.
Finalists in each category will be awarded a guaranteed 60 days of
national distribution on the mFlix mobile film channel, one of the
first mobile channels of its kind in the U.S. now available on the
Sprint PCS wireless network.
