Calling young film makers

YOUNG Victorian filmmakers have the opportunity to win $5000 by pitching a short film concept that promotes road safety and helps save lives.

The Transport Accident Commission’s (TAC) fourth annual Split Second Film Competition is now open, offering aspiring filmmakers the chance to produce a 45-second film and have it shown on the silver screen.

The TAC has partnered with Village Cinemas to offer a $70,000 production budget to all Victorians aged 18-25 to create a film that addresses low-level speeding or drink driving.

This year’s winner will work with prestigious production company Sweet Shop to bring their film concept to life and receive the prize money.

For more information on the competition, how to enter, and to view past winners, visit tac.vic.gov.au/road-safety/split-second.

The competition is open for entries until Monday 9 August.
