YOUR FILM AND MESSAGE
In addition to having mental health and/or addiction as a focus, films must fall into the following categories: Documentary, Narrative, or Animated. Don’t let this be limiting factor - everything from video blog style content, self-filmed stories with your phone, to cinematic masterpieces fit under this umbrella.
SUBMISSION REQUIREMENTS
The end credits of your film must culminate with the statement: "This film was created for the Alive Film Challenge." Before the finished film begins, the file must include a title card, which can be downloaded HERE. Submissions must have right to all music used within project.
