Unreal Engine – Real Time Short Film Challenge Application Deadline

A Short Film Initiative in Partnership with Epic Games

Epic Games, Screenwest, Film Victoria, Screen NSW, Screen Tasmania, South Australian Film Corporation, Screen Territory and Screen Queensland have partnered on a national special initiative to provide funding towards the production of short films that utilise the Unreal Engine software.

Western Australian content creators can apply to Screenwest for up to $20,000 production funding to create a short film of up to five minutes using Epic Games’ Unreal Engine software. Screenwest anticipates funding at least one Western Australian project. Epic Games will then assess the completed short films from each state and territory and award a $50,000 prize to one project.

The initiative guidelines, eligibility criteria and application forms are available on the Production Funding page of the Screenwest website.
