SXSW accepting entries for 5th SXSWclick Festival

by John P. Meyer

With the 2008 SXSW Film Fest barely completed, organizers are already accepting submissions for the 2009 SXSWclick, a competition geared toward short-form storytelling via mobile devices and the web.

There are five categories available for entry:

* Old-School Shorts (shot on "anything you like")

* Really Real Shorts (documentary short stuff)

* Animate-it (employing Flash and/or traditional animation)

* Sound Checks (aka music videos), and

* What the F*#!? (um - sort of self-non-explanatory - experimental and "machinima")

The entry fee is a modest $10, and the final deadline for entries is June 13.
