CGCHAR continues to promote film festivals that award cash prizes in the short film category. This time around we want to mention the Raindance Film Festival in the UK.
Along with the related British Independent Film Awards, Raindance helps to promote original filmmaking through diverse international programming. This year's prizes include the Diesel Film of the Festival award. The winner receives funds from Diesel to make the following year's Raindance film festival trailer, which is screened in cinemas all over the UK. Also up for grabs are the Distribution Award, where the winner receives UK theatrical and DVD distribution, and the Nokia Award, where the winner receives £5,000 ($9,000 USD) to make a short film.
