Entertainment will be built around the event that will all be geared toward diversity, including performances by some of the best female impersonators in the state. A portion of the proceeds from the festival will be donated to a different charity each year, that all deal with social issues affecting the LGBT community (The Trevor Project, HRC, etc)
We look forward to building a diversity weekend that can celebrate LGBTQ and film. All of the submissions will be jury selected by industry professionals such as actors, filmmakers & screenwriters.
GLITTER - will include film, screenwriting and photography contests. It will also include comprehensive workshops on Filmmaking 101 and Screenwriting.
GLITTER Submissions are judged by a panel of 25 individuals ranging from industry professionals, first time filmmakers, and movie buffs ! Each submission is based on a 10 point grading system with the collective points determining selections, nominations and awards.
