Lucid Film Fest is an opportunity for video artists and filmmakers to have their work appreciated in a unique environment before a large and diverse audience in the heart of Chicago. Lucid Creative Agency is committed to new media artistic development, celebrating diversity by supporting artists from all backgrounds, and veering from the norm presented by traditional film festivals. This film festival is the first of its kind by Lucid, and artists are invited to submit short films and/or video artworks.
Filmmakers with all levels of experience are invited to submit work. Submission is open from March 10th-April 20th. Artists will be notified of their selection on April 30th. Works in the following categories are welcome and encouraged: short film, commercial, or music video. There will be a cash prize for first place in each category.
Entry to the event is $5. Artists whose work is selected will gain free entry plus one free guest.
As a part of our goal to stand out from other film festivals, Lucid Film Fest will be held at Porkchop, a restaurant located in Hyde Park. Food and drink will be available for purchase, and the menu can be found here: http://www.chicagoporkchop.com/wp-content/uploads/2014/12/PRICELESS_PCMENU_SEPT2016.pdf
