Got a Quick Story to Tell? The 'Just a Minute' Film Festival Might be For You

The following was submitted by Don Daniel on behalf of JustAMinute.tv:

At www.JustAMinute.tv anyone can upload their one minute masterpiece,  made with any device, using any media and of any genre, to compete for prizes in this unique worldwide film event.

The previous www.JustAMinute.tv  event has garnered over ¾ of a million hits on the website and entries came from fourteen different countries. 

The festival’s founder, veteran Hollywood producer and Winchester resident, Don Daniel, believes that every story has a beginning, middle and end, and that creative people can tell their stories in sixty seconds or less, With image capturing devices so commonplace, why not use them to tell a story?

There is one Grand Prize and special prizes for those over 18 years and others for the youth – those under 18 years. There are additional prizes from participating cities and towns. There is no entry fee.

On Oct. 5^,  the films will be streamed, at random, from the site:

www.JustAMinute.TV. This is a viewers choice event and people are invited  to come back to watch and vote as often as they would like. To say ‘thank you’  for voting, once a week, a randomly chosen registered voter will be selected to receive an honorarium of $20. There are no charges of any kind. The polls close on Dec 1st. The production with the highest number of votes will receive a prize package that includes $500. All are welcome. This program is supported in part by grants from the Winchester Cultural Council, the Arlington Cultural Council, the Medford Arts Council, Beverly Cultural Council and the Billerica Arts Council, local agencies, which are supported by the Massachusetts Cultural Council, a state agency.

The winners will be announced on December 10.
