Our mission is to discover diverse new voices & to promote artists’ work through numerous platforms. In each edition, Filmmakers can submit their projects to have them judged by award-winning industry professionals against a high standard of merit and compete with other filmmakers across the globe. Every submission can add numerous additional judging categories but MUST submit to the MAIN CATEGORY to be considered for additional consideration. Please include the names being credited in your cover letter. All monthly winners will be automatically nominated for the prestigious GOLDEN DRAGON AWARDS (the best of the best).
