The Expecting Goodness Short Film Festival is accepting filmmaker applications until Dec. 31, 2013.
If selected, filmmakers will get to create a film adaptation of an award-winning short story by a South Carolina writer  and compete for juried prizes on festival night, June 14, 2014.
“This festival is an amazing opportunity for independent, South Carolina filmmakers,” said Chris White, co-director of this year’s festival. “Expecting Goodness connects filmmakers, writers, and the community like no other festival I know.”
Organizers are working to expand the festival and welcome filmmakers from across the state by offering more screenings, more perks, and more prizes — 11 juried prizes in all. In order to be eligible to participate, filmmakers must be South Carolina residents who are 18 and older. Filmmakers must be able to fully commit to the project and meet all of the stated deadlines. In addition, filmmakers must be responsible for their own equipment, materials and production costs.
