Sponsored Post: Bombay Sapphire Launches Imagination Series: Film Competition – Adrien Brody amongst the judges of innovative short film comp

2nd July 2013 By Tim Isaac

It’s always good to hear about people helping the world of short film, as a lot of excellent work is done in that area, but there’s very little funding and support. Bombay Sapphire has stepped up though and launched its second Bombay Sapphire Imagination Series: Film competition over at www.imaginationseries.com.

The Bombay Sapphire Imagination Series: Film competition, in association with the Tribeca Film Festival®, is based around an interesting idea. Academy Award winning screenwriter Geoffrey Fletcher (Precious) has come up with a very short script, and then filmmakers are tasked with coming up with an idea for a film using that dialogue.

The very simple script sees two characters in a situation one of them thinks they should get out of. However there’s very few stage directions and so the filmmaker gets to decide what happened, the location, what the characters are and pretty much everything else. You can see last year’s disparate and rather clever winning films below.

The competition will close on 4 August 2013, after which Adrien Brody, Geoffrey Fletcher and a panel of experts from the Tribeca Film Festival will shortlist the four most imaginative ideas to go into production. The panel will shortlist a further five ideas to go forward to a public vote, the winner of which will also be filmed.

All five films will then premiere at Tribeca in April 2014.

Adrien Brody comments, “I was a wild, mischievous kid and I had tremendous imagination. Any experience I had, I’d try to re-enact it. I always had an actor within me and I feel extremely passionate to be able to work with Bombay Sapphire on this competition. Imagination really can take you anywhere and is so subjective, so I eagerly anticipate people’s interpretation of Geoffrey’s script and look forward to embarking on this incredible journey with them.”

The Imagination Series script entry deadline has been extended for two more weeks and the new deadline is 18th August 2013 11.59pm (GMT).
