Taking Submissions HERE "So
You Think You Can Direct/Act" is a competition exclusively targeted to
recognize the talent of directors, actors and actresses from around the
world.
Directors just submit your finished film, documentary or short.
Actors simply submit their reels or featured movie clips to the
competition for consideration of their acting skills in many genres
from drama to comedy. Or, for the multi-faceted actor, combination
genre clips may also be submitted..
What
makes So You Think You Can Direct/Act unique from other actor-oriented
competitions? In order to insure that each submission is studied and
rated on an individual basis, SYTYCA has instituted a system to insure
that entries do not compete against each other, but instead are
recognized for their own individual merits. For all intents and
purposes, they compete against themselves: each entry is judged on
individual merits and scored on an inherent value system. We want to
insure that the judges focus is on you when it is your turn to be
evaluated, not on all the other actors that are in cue: this insures
that they will not have comparisons going on in their minds when they
should be focusing entirely on YOU.
Awards
are given based on a combination of points from judges
Judges score entries on a performance scale and winning entries are
recognized and awarded.
