Tell us your story ... in just 60 seconds.
The tools of filmmaking have never been more accessible; most of us carry a high-quality video camera in our pockets every day.
This year, the Center for Creativity is proud to present our third annual One Minute Film Festival, a visual storytelling platform for anyone in the Pitt community with an idea and a smartphone (or digital camera).
The festival is open to all forms of expression through the moving image: we want to see your narrative shorts, stop motion, experimental films, and anything else you come up with. The only constraint is the time limit.
How can you convey a message, show the meaning in a moment, and compel an audience in only a minute?

One Minute Film Festival Screening
Thursday, Oct. 27 | 8:30-10 p.m. Get it on your calendar
Join us in C4C: The Understory (Cathedral of Learning basement, room B-50) to celebrate this year's One Minute Film Festival submissions.
We'll be screening the films on our stage throughout the evening, so you can drop in on your own schedule, and we'll also make the announcements of this year's awards.
Bring a friend (or friend group) and enjoy a night of movies, popcorn (of course!), and refreshments.
