Australia’s only dedicated smartphone film festival, SmartFone Flick Fest (or SF3, as the cool kids call it) is back for 2016 – and entries are open now.

The high cost of production equipment that filmmakers usually have to contend with is no barrier to this festival, of course, and it offers talented unsung creatives the chance to have their films seen by not only a national audience, but a global one.

Entries are open until Monday August 1 – all you’ll need is an idea and a smartphone – and the ten finalist films will screen at a gala awards night on Friday August 26 at Chauvel Cinema.

The top ten will be made available for public voting online, and the winning filmmakers and actors will take home prize packs worth over $7,000.

Visit sf3.com.au and get filming.
