[pct-l] 2011 Kick-off Short Film Festival Reminder

[Ryan Christensen]

Last years Pacific Crest Trail Film Festival was an outrageous success and this 
years promises to be even better! Now is the time to start putting together your 

videos for the 2011 Pacific Crest Trail Film Festival at the Kick-off! 

For 2011 we will have two categories: videos up to 8 minutes in length and 
videos between 8 and up to 20 minutes in length. We will only select one or two 
of the longer videos to screen and the rest of the time will be slotted for the 
shorter videos. Screening up to 10 of the shorter videos gives more people the 
chance to share their work of art to the PCT community. 

We are looking for short videos that are related to the PCT. We are not looking 
for videos that were mindlessly thrown together- we are looking for videos that 
have story- videos that show that you have something to say. For example: the 
video could be funny, painful, uplifting, scenic, adventurous- or even romantic. 

It could offer a vignette into a particular aspect of hiking the trail; it could 

explore a particular place or person; it could explore a particular incident or 
event—but the most important requirement is that it relates to the Pacific Crest 

Trail.

Videos must be submitted by April 15th so it can be received in time for the 
April 29th start of the 2011 kick-off. Videos should be burned to a DVD Disk. 
I-Movie, Adobe Premiere, Final Cut Pro and Windows Movie Maker all can do this 
for you. It can be in wide-screen 16x9 or 4x3 aspect ratio. The total running 
time and the video-creators contact information should be written on the disk. 
The selection of videos to be shown is per the discretion of ProDeal. 
Submissions may be retained for future use or discarded. No DVD's will be 
returned. No video will be used for any other use without the permission of the 
video creator.


Send your video submissions to:

1829 Fir St.

Again, they must be received by April 15th. 

We are looking forward to screening your creations!
