Oxford School Shorts 2018

Inspiration Pack (Updated) by abuc2983 on Scribd

Dear All, 

Submissions are now open for Oxford School Shorts 2018, a new competition for students in Oxfordshire. Winners will have a screening of their moving image work shown at Modern Art Oxford in early February of next year - selected by a judging panel of Ruskin Students.

Oxford School Shorts has decided to change the two film limit for this years entry and make it open to all students. Therefore we hope to encourage more students to take part.

This is an opportunity for all schools in Oxford to get involved in creating video art and show their work in a internationally renowned art institution. We are excited to see all types of film and open to all ideas, however we would like to stress we are NOT looking for documentary-based works. 

We want your students to be innovative, creative and experimental in their film making, showing their enthusiasm for art. This means we aren't looking for a highly polished professional art film, as we want to give students the opportunity to explore an area of art that they might not have previously experimented with before. Collaborative films are allowed.

In Summary

Eligibility: Application is open to current Oxfordshire year 10, 11, 12 and 13 students.

Submission Guidelines:

Type: Moving Image

Duration: 4 min (max)

Expressions of interest should be sent to the email address: oxfordschoolshorts.rsa@gmail.com. The deadline for expressions of interest will be extended to 7th November 2017.

Once you have registered your interest, we will contact you with a link to our Dropbox account and an information pack for your students.

The submissions deadline to the Dropbox account will be 6th January 2018.

We welcome any questions and would appreciate your reply as soon as possible.

We hope to hear from you soon! 

All the Best
