Shorts in the Fall

Do you make short films? Are you a connoisseur of shorts? (We're talking cargo, denim, flat front) Do you love making shorts while wearing shorts in the fall? WELL THIS IS THE FILM FESTIVAL FOR YOU!!! This October, The Mahoning Drive-In Theater presents it's 2nd Annual short film festival entitled ----drumroll please---- SHORTS IN THE FALL. This will be a two-night event where we showcase the bizarre, weird, provocative, offbeat, quirky, and fun short films from around the Tri-State area. Whether a short drama, comedy, horror, sci-fi, animation, or whatever bizarre mash up of genre filmmaking you can come up with.Plus we're also accepting music videos too! Each filmmaker is allowed to submit no more than (1) film, which should be no longer than (15) minutes in length. Our crack team of judges will narrow all the submissions down to the Top (24) films, which will then be split into (2) separate screenings over the course of (2) nights. Each screening will be followed by an awards ceremony, an audience Q&A , and a personally curated feature length film made by an up and coming area filmmaker (it wouldn't be a night at the drive-in without a double feature). So what are you waiting for? Doesn't matter if you're a first timer, student, or seasoned vet. Give us your short films today, and if selected we hope to see you at our screening still rockin' those cargo shorts all the way into late October! ----- The Mahoning Drive-In Theater is located in Lehighton, Pennsylvania and was built in 1948. Since then, it has entertained moviegoers for over half a century on the largest CinemaScope screen in Pennsylvania! We offer an exclusively retro 35mm (and sometimes digital) film program, which is presented reel-to-reel via original 1940's Simplex projectors! Our goal; To deliver you a true love of film, and the nostalgic moviegoing experience you can only get at the drive-in! -----
