Mid America Filmmakers is seeking short films for their annual Summer Screening on Tuesday, August 25 at 7:00 p.m. at the beautiful Vickers Theatre in Three Oaks, Michigan. There will be an exciting selection of local and regional short films followed by a Q&A with area filmmakers. There is no fee to submit a film, but a $5.00 donation is requested for attendees.

Deadline for entries is Friday, August 7.  Download the entry form:  MAF Summer Screening 09 Submission Form. Screening Chair Trisha Miller can be contacted at proseprincess@hotmail.com. Preference will be given to films from the Michiana area. Films should preferably be 30 minutes or less, but longer may be considered. They should also have been completed in 2007 or later.

This message is to announce that MAF has partnered with Holiday Inn downtown and they have graciously offered for MAF to hold their monthly meetings in the private meeting room downstairs in The Cellar Door (and they are letting us use it for free). Parking is available in the parking garage at no charge as well. I’m excited about this move, and am looking forward to a good relationship with Holiday Inn! The first meeting there will be the August meeting on the 4th.  The address is 213 W. WASHINGTON STREET,  SOUTH BEND, IN 46601

Thanks,
Scott Dokey, President of MAF
