The competition is open to all women who are legal U.S. residents and who, as of the date of entry, are at least 18 years of age. Competition entrants will produce short films of three to five minutes in length.
Deadline: July 8, 2008
First- and second-place winners, as well as three honorable mentions, will be selected. In addition, the LMN.tv audience will have a chance to vote online for their favorite film and determine the selection of a special LMN.tv Audience Winner. The judge-selected first- and second-place winners will receive $5,000 and $2,500, respectively, to advance their film projects as well as exposure on Lifetime Movie Network and LMN.tv and trips to both the Hollywood Reporter Women in Entertainment Breakfast and the Hamptons International Film Festival, where they will be featured guests. The three honorable mention recipients, as well as the favorite filmmaker chosen by the LMN.tv audience, will win $1,000 each.
