Play is creative. It means testing boundaries, and taking risks. In two minutes, just how playful can you be? Join us for the third installment of the 2-Minute Film Festival, “At Play.”
You are invited to submit your most creative, most innovative, briefest video engaging in some way with the notion of play. Films selected will be screened in Carnegie Museum of Art’s courtyard for this late-night Culture Club starting at 9:00 p.m. (festivities and some hands-on activities start at 7:30 p.m.) Each selected entry will be eligible for People’s Choice and Juror’s Choice prizes, and for the first time this year, films chosen for the festival screening will also be made available on the 2MFF website where visitors will be able to vote for their favorite prior to the event.
Submission deadline: June 21, 2013
