straight 8 invites anyone anywhere to make a short film on one cartridge of super 8 — without editing. The first time filmmakers see their film is at its premiere. Like last year at the cannes film festival or slamdance. Check out straight 8 – how it works in the project videos to find out more. You can enter straight 8 2012 now on our website:

Every year, straight 8 receives over 100 entries from all over the world. All kinds of people enter, and some of our best ever films, have been made by first-time filmmakers and students as well as seasoned professionals. We don’t set a creative brief – so you can make whatever you want to make. If you’ve got a film in you, we want to see it.
