The True/False Film Festival in Columbia Missouri is sponsoring a short film contest for Missouri Film Makers. From the website:
Fact or fiction? It will be up to the Gimme Truth! audience to decide whether Missouri filmmakers have created a profile of a Missourian that is 100% true or 100% false. Videos that make the final cut will be part of a game show at the annual True/False Film Fest in Columbia, Missouri.
All submitted entries will be viewed by a panel of judges and 10 finalists will be selected to be screened at Lela Raney Wood Hall at Stephens College on Sunday, March 2nd, 2008.
The screening of the Gimme Truth! films will be in the form of a ’60s-era TV game show a la “What’s My Line” or “Truth or Consequences.” Contestants in the game show will be visiting documentary filmmakers from around the world. As the shorts screen, they will compete against each other guessing which videos are True or False. As they do this, they will also act as judges, picking their favorites from among the 10 finalists. Prizes will be awarded to the ten finalists. Additionally, the top three films will receive cash and in-kind prize packages, with no less than $500 in combined cash and prizes for first prize.
