The Saugatuck Center for the Arts (400 Culver Street) is calling all filmmakers to submit their short films to the third annual Saugatuck Shorts Film Competition on November 7, 2015.

This year marks the third year of the Saugatuck Center for the Arts' (SCA) film competition, where professional and student filmmakers will compete for $2,500 worth of cash prizes for their short films-five minutes or less-that feature some sort of Michigan flavor. Student submissions (high school students and younger) are free, and adults (college and up) are $15.00 per entry. Registration for Saugatuck Shorts is open now until October 9th, and can be completed at sc4a.org.

"Over THE PAST three years, the SCA's Saugatuck Shorts competition has brought in filmmakers from across the state for a wonderful night of engaging entertainment on the big screen," said Kristin Armstrong, SCA Executive Director. "The competition is a great way for students and professionals alike to get their work in front of the community. We are very excited to bring this special competition back!"

Saugatuck Shorts is the only film competition in West Michigan that offers a cash prize for film submissions in a juried category and an audience favorite. Similar to ArtPrize, a panel of judges will choose the top tens shorts to be shown on screening night. Of those top ten, a winner from the student and from the adult category will be chosen. The Student Winner will be awarded $500 and the Adult Winner, $1,000. On screening night, after the audience has viewed all ten shorts, they will cast their votes for the "Audience Favorite" which will be awarded another $1,000.

More information and registration details for Saugatuck Shorts can be found at sc4a.org or by calling 269-857-2399.
