REQUIREMENTS AND LIMITATIONS

In the digital era of smartphones and information access, the Celebration of the Humanities Contest is proud to inaugurate the Film Category with three available contests.
Reminder: if you are submitting more than one entry, you will need to fill out an entry form for each one. Students may submit up to three (3) total entries.
- Sixty (60) Second Short
- Modeled loosely upon Lumière and Company (1995), the Sixty Second Short category asks contestants to submit a short film of no more than sixty seconds with no limitations on the content, genre, style, or subject. The film should address a concept, theme, or idea within the short, allotted space. Title screen nor credit scenes should be counted in the sixty seconds.
- Five-Minute Film
- The Five-Minute Film category asks contestants to submit a film of no more than five (5) minutes with no limitations on the content, genre, style, or subject. Films can use any style or technique. The film should introduce a concept, theme, or idea, and achieve a resolution within the five-minute time frame.
- Short Film (15 minutes or fewer)
- The Short Film category asks contestants to submit a film of no more than fifteen (15) minutes with no limitations on the content, genre, style, or subject. Films can use any style or technique. The film should introduce a concept, theme, or idea, and achieve a resolution within the fifteen-minute time frame.
All video file submissions should be a maximum of 1080p resolution, and in the form of an .mp4 or .mov video file. Or, you may provide a Vimeo or YouTube link instead.
