NEW YORK, Today: After a two-year hiatus due to the pandemic, The One Club has announced the return of One Screen, the original short film festival for the global creative community that unites and celebrates filmmakers from both commercial advertising and film industries.
The global One Screen, which typically receives entries from upwards of 45 countries, recognises numerous forms and aspects of short films including narrative fiction, comedy, passion projects, commercials, branded content, music videos, spec work, animation, sound design, movie poster design, and title sequences.
The festival recognises numerous forms and aspects of short films, including narrative fiction, comedy, passion projects, commercials, branded content, music videos, spec work, animation, sound design, movie poster design, and title sequences.
One Club’s Jack Mello said: “The mission of the programme is to celebrate filmmakers working in both the film and ad industries, with no limitation and total artistic freedom, all on one screen.”
“The global call for entries for One Screen 2022 is now open for work released online or offline between 1 January 2020 and 30 April 2022.
“A tiered pricing structure based on entry deadlines makes the competition affordable even for freelancers and small independents: $US60 for entries received by the June 6 early deadline, $75 for the July 8 regular deadline, and $90 for the extended deadline of August 5.”
“The shorts fest recognises comedy, passion projects, commercials, branded content, music videos, spec work, animation, sound design, movie poster design, and title sequences.”
Entries are judged by a jury of leading film directors, producers, ad agency creatives and heads of production companies, to be announced shortly. Winners will be unveiled at the One Screen Short Film Festival and screening later this year.
One Screen is part of The One Club for Creativity, a global non-profit organisation celebrating creative excellence in advertising and design, and has its pedigree in the club’s One Show, a leading global awards programme for advertising and design.
The One Show was the first ad industry awards competition to recognise original branded content, creating the separate new category of Branded Entertainment in 2003 to accommodate the first work from BMW Films.
“One Screen has grown in stature to the point of attracting Oscar winners from around the world as both entrants and judges,” said One Club ceo Kevin Swanepoel.
“At the same time, we are dedicated to recognising great work from all sorts of entrants, be they large or small ad agencies and production companies, independent directors, sound designers, movie poster graphic designers and others involved in film.
“One Screen is a home for the projects of accomplished filmmakers, as well as a proving ground for promising young talent.”
