Don't Miss the Chance to Win a $25K Grant for Your 60-Second Film

Moët Moment Film Festival
By Sponsored Content
February 28, 2017
Bryce Dallas Howard, Gina Rodriguez and more will judge your shorts for a chance to win the Moët Moment Film Festival's big prize.

A $25,000 prize for a 60-second film? We'll toast to that. Thanks to Moët & Chandon champagne, you have the chance to submit your short for just such an opportunity—plus get your work in front of some top industry judges who will provide mentoring as well as win an all-access pass to the 2017 Tribeca Film Festival.

Launched in 2016 to celebrate Moët's longstanding position as the official Champagne of the Golden Globes, the contest—nicknaming itself “The Minis”—is a new, annual competition that aims to award and bring attention to young short form filmmakers. As such, the charge is for burgeoning filmmakers to create 60-second films with the theme of “This is Your Moment.” Entries will be judged by an impressive panel of industry luminaries that includes Actress Bryce Dallas Howard, Golden Globe-winning actress Gina Rodriguez, producer David Guillod, Serial Pictures cofounder Violaine Etienne, Tribeca Film Festival's VP of Shorts Programming Sharon Badal, Ghetto Film School’s Kisha Imani Cameron and the Hollywood Foreign Press’ Elisabeth Sereda.

The judging panel will choose the ten most inspiring films, and this year, there will also be a People's Choice Award via online voting that will take place next month. These films will be celebrated at The Minis awards event in New York City in April. The first-place winning filmmaker will receive a $25,000 grant towards further developing their career, and a trip to Tribeca Film Festival for themselves and a guest. The second and third place winners will win an opportunity to consult with judges from the panel as mentors on how to keep pursuing their dreams in film. 

Note that the contest is open only to legal residents of the U.S. (excluding RI and UT). Now, get to shooting so you can submit here by March 27, 2017. And who knows? Maybe by next year, you'll be sipping Moët at the Golden Globes yourself.
