Festival Details
The St. Vrain Valley Student Film Festival is a chance for local high school and middle school students to share their unique story and perspective. It is intended to create a platform for students to share their voice. Don’t keep your voices, or your films, hidden. Share your story!
Film Categories
Film(s) may be submitted in one or more of the following categories:
Action/Sports: This category is for films that concentrate on action — think skateboarding, dance, mountain biking, etc.
Animation: Can be digital animation, stop motion, or drawn animation
Comedy: Emphasizing humor, this film is intended to make the audience laugh
Documentary: A nonfiction story intended to instruct, educate or historically record
Drama: This category is about the story and is a narrative intended to be more serious than humorous (Includes horror films; please review #6 in the submission guidelines before submitting)
Experimental: This category is for films that experiment with filmmaking and can be done in filming or in post production
Middle School: Any submission by a middle school student
Selection and Screening
A selection committee will view films and choose which films will move on to judging. The selected entries will be screened by the judges who will score each film based on a common rubric. These scores will then be brought to the festival and averaged with the audience voting to calculate a first, second and third place winner in each category. Winning films will receive an award.
