Call For Short Film Submissions

 

The Organization of Black Screenwriters - OBS is on the move with its new “Night at the Movies - Short Film Showcase”.  We are showcasing short films created by OBS members and local writer/filmmakers - writer/directors – writer/producers.  Our “Night at the Movies” shines a spotlight on the Filmmaker/Writer giving them a forum to not only showcase their film, but to discuss their motivation and the making of the film in a Q&A session; therefore the filmmaker/writer must be present.

 

Since we begin we have showcased films from writer/filmmakers such as: Rae Shaw, Zelie Dember-Slack, Shawnee & Shawnelle Gibbs, Harold Sylvester, Dwayne Johnson-Cochran, Eric Haywood, Angela Gibbs, Yvonne Farrow, and many others.

 

For consideration for our “Night at the Movies” the OBS Outreach Committee
