Event:

The 2008 Cinema One Originals Digital Movie Festival

Submit full script on or before MARCH 28
Extended deadline for Cinema One Originals 2008

    Cinema One, the country's premiere movie channel, opens its doors once again to all filmmakers by giving them a chance to film their creations through the annual `Cinema One Originals.' The vision and goal of this project is to be able to encourage Filipino talents who have fresh and new ideas to generate original and full length films that sell without having to sacrifice depth and substance in content. Chosen completed film scripts will be funded by Cinema One with a budget of P1,000,000 to cover for all filming expenses and costs. These select creations will also be shown nationwide, and even worldwide, with the help of Cinema One.

    With the great success of many past independent films from young and talented Filipinos, Cinema One Originals may be the much needed break of hopeful filmmakers to be able to invade Philippine Cinema and eventually, the world.

    Cinema One is now in search of the next batch of unique, innovative and creative works for the 2008 Cinema One Originals Film Festival. From five (5) selected digital movie projects last year, Cinema One will now choose seven (7) original narrative feature scripts from all of the submitted entries, giving film aspirants more chances of winning.

    For those interested to join, submit a full-length feature script in either English or Filipino, a brief resume with photos, samples of previous work dubbed in VHS, CD or DVD, and a duly accomplished application form to the Cinema One Originals Secretariat, CPI Programming office, 10/f, ELJ Communications Center Building, ABS-CBN compound, Eugenio Lopez Drive, Quezon City or email to cinemaone@abs-cbn.com. Only those with complete requirements will be accepted. Extended deadline for submission of entries is on March 28, 2008 (Friday).

    Cinema One proudly lives up to its tagline, "Ang Buhay Natin, Parang Sine." With the upcoming 2008 Cinema One Originals, it is no doubt that these films will give not only entertainment, but will also serve as an inspiration for millions of talented Filipinos around the globe.
