HOW CRAZY8'S WORKS

Aspiring filmmakers are invited to present their short film idea in a 5-minute video.

40 semi-finalists will be chosen to pitch in person to a jury of industry professionals.

12 finalists will workshop their script with a professional story editor.

6 winners will receive $800 and a production package with everything they need to make their short film in just 8 days.

Finished films will be screened at a gala event to the who's who of the Vancouver film industry on March 30, 2012.

It's fast! It's fun! It's Crazy!
