Make a 5 minute documentary in 3 weeks on 1 topic – this staggeringly easy competition is run by ANU in Canberra, as kind of Tropfest for documentaries. The judges – Andrew Pike, Bob Connolly, Troy Lum ad Helen Simondson – are a high wattage bunch, so deliberations would be worth their own show.
Following on from the successful 2004 & 2003 Art of the Documentary Film Competition, the 5 in 3 on 1 Documentary Film Competition is on again for 2005. Hosted by the ANU National Institute of the Humanities & Creative Arts and the National Museum of Australia, the theme of this year’s 5 in 3 on 1 competition will be launched on Friday 2 September for a 3 week period, with submissions due Friday 23 September. Judges will then have two months to decide on the winners before a variety of prizes are announced at a special screening of the event Friday 25 November 2005.
