Tweedlove: Short Film Competition launched

by 0

Like making movies? Want to see them on the big screen? Tweedlove are running their popular short film competition again in 2015 and want to see more entries dropping from bike folk outside of the valley. Whether you’re the next big thing in mountain bike movies, or it’s been a while since you’ve got behind a camera. If you’ve got a story to tell, or an idea in your mind, they want to hear from you!

Fiona from Tweedlove says: “TweedLove film competitions have attracted some original ideas and high quality submissions – so keep them coming! Kids films, arty films, adrenaline films… doesn’t matter as long as it’s on theme.”

The winner will be announced at the TweedLove Bike Night, where the plan is to show some of the top entries (great prizes for the winners) and there might be a special extra prize for best film featuring the Tweed Valley.

Here’s what happened last year…

First prize – Lucy Grant Too cool for School.  Filmed by Matt MacDonald

Second prize – Half Decent.  Filmed by Ian Munro

Third prize – Life on One Wheel.  Filmed by Lucy Grant

Highly Commended – New Balance – Filmed by Scott Mulligan

And here’s the official bit:
