Scheduled to run between October 15-18 this year, Nottingham’s Mayhem film festival has issued an open call for short films to join their Scary Shorts programming block. If you’ve got an idea, or a short already in the can, then read on!
Mayhem, now approaching its 11th edition, takes place at the Broadway Cinema, Nottingham, UK. Co-directors Chris Cooke and Steven Sheil are looking for local, national, and international entries in their quest to compile an outstanding list of short films for the festival.
They explained: “Whether a dark and twisted horror film, or a thoughtful science fiction drama, we want to see it! Short films remain at the heart of what Mayhem is about – they’re the place to spot the future feature filmmakers, the people who will shape the horror and science fiction genres and alter cult cinema for years to come. It’s a place to network, too, with many filmmakers coming together from the city, the country, and beyond.”
The call is open right now, and submissions are being accepted (at no cost to the filmmaker) until Friday, August 14. To submit your short, email Melissa Geuneau at mayhemfilmfest@gmail.com.
Good luck!
