Guidelines
The most important movie guidelines are that the submissions must be five minutes or less created during Campus MovieFest week. The only people who can film, edit, and direct are your teammates, who must be current students, faculty, or staff of your university. Others not from your school are welcome to appear in your movie. Also, permission is needed for any music used in the movies that's not original -- fortunately, CMF provides you with thousands of tracks to consider from top local artists. And, of course, follow your school's conduct code. Check out all the guidelines in the CMF Training Manual. |
