Gary Anthony Williams (Boston Legal, Boondocks), co-founder of the
L.A. Comedy Shorts Film Festival, announced today that the 2009 fest
will be held March 5th-8th in Hollywood, CA.
“I’m using every industry connection I have, to make sure that comedic
films and filmmakers get their due. This is a festival for and by
funny folks.”
He also announced that L.A. Comedy Shorts is now accepting submissions
for the 2009 festival in the following categories: Comedy Short Films
(30 minutes or less), Comedy ‘Shortie’ Shorts (5 minutes or less) and
Animated Comedy Shorts (30 minutes or less)
Submission guidelines and information can be found at www.lacomedyshorts.com
as well as through www.withoutabox.com. The early deadline is October
3, 2008. The regular deadline is November 3, 2008, the final deadline
is December 3, 2008 and the extended Withoutabox deadline is December
19, 2008.
The festival will be awarding over $25,000 in cash and prizes as well
as industry exposure including a guaranteed screening of the Grand
Prize winner for the heads of production at Benderspink (American Pie,
Monster-in-Law, The Ring).
The film festival is being held in conjunction with the LA Comedy
Scripts Screenplay Competition, which is now accepting entries for
Feature Comedy Screenplays (80-130 pages) and Short Comedy Screenplays
(30 pages or less) at www.lacomedyshorts.com and through www.withoutabox.com.
The L.A. Comedy Shorts Film Festival and LA Comedy Scripts Screenplay
Competition are dedicated to celebrating and promoting funny people
who do funny work. The festival was founded because comedies
typically have a harder time winning prestigious awards. All judges
are top names in the fields of comedy and filmmaking. |
