One Shot Terrassa City Film Festival by FilmFreeway and prizes up to 3000€

FilmFreeway is inviting filmmakers to take part in The One Shot Terrassa City of Film competition. The One Shot Terrassa City of Film is a film festival that takes back the old Sequence Shot Contest organised in Terrassa between 2004 and 2012. It came last year again, and we're following the success. So this is the 11th Edition of the festival.

The particularity of this festival is that ONLY ACCEPTS ONE SHOT FILMS. Only short films. What does it mean? As is well known, is about telling a story - at least 3 minutes long - in just a single shot, that is: no cutting or image editing.

The prizes (for both 'JUNIOR' and 'SENIOR' categories) would be as follows:

1. BEST SEQUENCE SHOT FILM: 1,200€ for 'Senior' / Specialized film equipment or software for 'Junior'.
2. (It would include the best direction)
3. SECOND AWARD: 1,000€ for 'Senior' / Specialized film equipment or software for 'Junior'
4. THIRD AWARD: 800€ for 'Senior' / Specialized film equipment or software for 'Junior'.

1. One Shot Terrassa City of Film is an International Film Festival accepting films - shorts or feature - from any part of the world from filmmakers of any nationality.
2. 02 - Two categories will be established: "Junior" (up to 18 years) "Senior" (from 18 years)
3. The final deadline to submit your work for each of the categories is 5th of OCTOBER of 2021.
4. The film festival will not incur any fees, it is free to participate.
5. The festival accepts films produced from 2018 to the last date of reception. There are no premiere status requirements for the films, whether they have been made available physically or online. But they can not be publicly available online while the festival takes place.
6. The festival will take place during the week of October 25th to 31th 2021.
7. The topic or theme of the films is free.
8. The minimum duration of the films must be THREE MINUTES (start and/or end titles counted besides the length of the sequence shot). The maximum duration is FOURTY MINUTES.
9. All movies must be in horizontal screen format.
10. The sequence shot cannot include any frame of just a single colour (white, black...) nor any repeated frame, nor any FX applied on the motion picture that can disguise a manipulation. The plot content must therefore be filmed in a single shot with no cutting from start to the end.
11. Credit titles may be added at the beginning and/or end, without images or sounds unrelated with the plot content of the sequence shot, and preferably on a neutral background.
12. The overprinting of graphic elements on the image is permitted, as long as its size allows to identify at all time the continuity of the sequence shot.
13. It’s allowed to edit the soundtrack, adding voiceovers, dialogues, sound effects or music to complement or replace the original sound.
14. Subtitles can also be added, preferably in English, in case there are dialogues or voices off. If the film language is not Catalan or Spanish, subtitles are mandatory, either in Catalan, Spanish or English. The organization is entitled to request the subtitles, in the event that are not presented, and considered necessary for the screening.
