The EDTV Student Film Festival is returning for its 6th year, celebrating some of the best filmmaking and photography the Plymouth Public Schools community has to offer!
After the success of last year’s festival format, we’re bringing back our Drama, Mystery, and Comedy genres, as well as the featured prop and dialogue line requirements for each film.
The prop for this year? A key! Remember, a key comes in many different forms. How you choose to portray it in your film is entirely up to you.
This year’s line of dialogue is… ‘Wait a second.’ Make sure to feature it somewhere in your film, however you see fit!
Our photography category is also returning, featuring the three styles of still-life, portrait, and abstract. Choose the style that best fits your photo idea, and make sure it features some form of ‘key’ within the frame.
And of course, the festival wouldn’t be complete without some awards. We’ve got plenty of them – 24 in all, split between the middle school and high school levels in both our film and photography sections. Don’t miss your chance to make your creative mark and take home some incredible prizes at the 2025 EDTV Student Film Festival!
And from all of us here at EDTV – good luck, and happy filmmaking!
