LVQA is accepting short and feature length projects. Short projects will be determined as any project with a runtime between 3-20 minutes in length. Feature projects will be determined as any project with a runtime between 75-120 minutes in length.
There are three main points of criteria for consideration into the festival, but any submission need only to meet ONE (1) in order to qualify. They are listed below:
1) A member of the LGBTQ+ community must hold a major role in production of the project (Director, Writer, Producer, DP, Editor)
2) A member of the LGBTQ+ community must be the lead talent, or part of the lead ensemble of the project
3) The story, narrative, or theme(s) of the project must come from within the LGBTQ+ community
Nevada residents are allowed an Earlybird or Regular Deadline fee waiver upon request via email. Late Deadline fees apply for all submissions.
Format specifications: DCP REQUIRED PER THE FESTIVAL VENUE. If selected filmmakers cannot provide their own DCP, conversion can be provided with a fee. In such case, a .mov/.mp4 file will be accepted.
