Nicktoons encourages all animators to enter their short films, created in any style of animation, which are 10-minutes in length or under. Shorts must have sequences acceptable to a family-oriented audience, and should combine a unique look, great character design and funny plot. Submitted shorts will be chosen by a pre-selection jury, and the finalists will air on Nicktoons and online in August. A grand jury will select a $10,000 Grand Prize winner from the top ten films chosen. There will also be a Viewer’s Choice prize, based on the selection of online voters. Nextoons: The Nicktoons Film Festival is produced by Frederator Studios.
The Call for Entries commenced on Monday, March 28th and will continue until Friday, June 17th. Entrants must be at least 18 years old. For additional information or to download entry forms go to www.nicktoons.com.
