[Editor’s Note] The competition to be one of the four filmmakers chosen to take part in the Lexus Short Films Season Three is stiff and for good reason. The winners have their shorts fully financed so they can be professionally made and then they are internationally showcased by The Weinstein Company. It’s an amazing opportunity for an up-and-coming filmmaker.
Now in its third season, over 4400 filmmakers applied. Each applicant submitted a previously produced short film watched by a ten-person screening committee. Once the committee identified the top films by region, finalists wrote a short film treatment based on the upcoming theme of “Anticipation.”
So how do you come up with a short film idea that stands out in such a crowded field? In other words what makes a good short film? To find out, we asked this year’s winners how they built a story around the theme of “Anticipation”
