FunMill Films Fest Competition
Think you've got what it takes to win the FunMill Films Fest Competition? We'd love to see what you've got!
Each team will receive the same first page of a script and the challenge will be to see how each team chooses to complete the story. There are no set genres to abide by, and there are very minimal rules - we want to see the best of what you can come up with while having very minimal creative restrictions. All films are guaranteed to screen at our main event and cash prizes and awards will be distributed at our after party!
