EVENT: Short Film "Hot Bread Shop" screening at 2011 Colourfest Film Festival, 4 Jun, 6pm

Here's some excitement. My Vietnamese-first mockumentary is being screen at the 2011 Colourfest Film Festival this Saturday, alongside with Vinh Nguyen's "The Tech Effect" and Marie Setiawan's "Fairytale".

2010 Colourfest National Film Festival - Don’t trash what you don’t know…you don’t even know me!

I thought I pass this one one through my networks and also all those avid filmmakers out there. My ICE colleague Gary (Also the Create Media Coordinator) is running the Colourfest Festival this year. I'm preparations to submit a 2 min Quest for Jackie Chan Trailer (once I get it done of course!). Don't forget to pass this one on! 

Signing out,

Maria Tran.

Colourfest Submissions
Don’t trash what you don’t know…you don’t even know me!

Colourfest is sending a call out to all culturally diverse film makers in Australia.

Colourfest was born out of love for film making, and a yawn for predictable Australian shorts that seem to make it to our screens every year. There seems to be a multitude of films from culturally diverse Australian film makers, but where art thou on screen?

We want Australia and the world to watch our films and love it, here is your platform to showcase your work.

Entries Due: 28th of April, 5pm.

Rules and regulations: Your film must be under 14mins, made in Australia within the last two years, with at least one member of key cast or key crew from a culturally diverse background (lead/supporting actors, writer, director, editor, producer and cinematographer). Your film can be in a language other than English, with English subtitles.
