What we’re about
Minute Movies is a group for film enthusiasts who want to make short films. Every month there is a new single-word theme and filmmakers make movies about a minute long inspired by the word. Everyone is invited to participate, no matter their equipment or experience level. We have a range of people from first time filmmakers filming on a phone to professionals filming on a high quality camera and everyone in between.
On the third Sunday of the month we have a virtual live screening with the filmmakers in attendance so anyone can come, watch, and ask the filmmakers questions or give feedback. Everyone is welcome to submit a short film or watch the screening!
Sign up for the newsletter to get links to the monthly playlists and access to the monthly film challenges, and extra bonus info! https://minutemovies.com/newsletter-sign-up/

Some quick guidelines:
To submit: Send in your video file and YouTube link: https://minutemovies.com/film-submission/
-All movies should be roughly one minute long, no more than two minutes (plus 15 seconds of credits)
-Somewhere in the credits include the theme and the phrase "Made for Seattle Minute Movies"
-No copyrighted material (including music*)
-Keep everything respectful. This is a family friendly group!
-Deadline is the Saturday before the screening
-Movies will be screened on a first-come, first-serve basis. So send me the link as soon as you're done!
-Priority will be given to those who are present at the meeting, but if you finish a movie and can't make it, send me the link and I'll still screen it!
-In the interests of keeping the screening from going more than 2 hours, movies that follow all the guidelines have priority (on time and within the length limit). You are welcome to submit multiple films, but I might ask you to pick which one will be shown if there are a lot of submissions for the month.
-By submitting you're giving Minute Movies permission to use clips and images from your video for promotional purposes.
