Basic Guidelines

Filmmakers are encouraged to uphold the integrity of their neighborhood. Unlike narrative films, your episodes should not include staged events or filmmakers directing people what to say or do. Our goal is to capture the truth of the ongoing reality of a neighborhood.

You must produce a minimum of 7 episodes within 5 months. You are allowed to post a maximum of 1 episode a week, and as long as you stay within the parameters put forth below you can continue to put up episodes after your initial 6 months has elapsed.

Episodes cannot exceed a running time of 4 1/2 minutes. You are the sole filmmaker of your specific neighborhood films, unless upon submission you specify (only) one other person who will collaborate with you.

You will be responsible for maintaining your sub-site. This includes: uploading each new episode to neighborhoodfilms.com server and creating photo stills of each episode.
