Louisiana Arts & Film Organization (LAF) and Our First Fight is currently accepting submissions for their director’s competition. The contest accepts submissions from directors of all levels of experience. Each director will submit a music video treatment for one of Our First Fight’s songs (“Time” or “Under”). The field is then narrowed down to the top two music video treatments and Our First Fight will consult with the LAF selection committee to select a winner.
Along with the award, LAF may extend a full production crew, as well as editing and equipment, for the music video shoot. If selected, the director will have meaningful consultation with the band Our First Fight before shooting the music video.
Recently, Our First Fight was nominated in 225 Magazine’s Best Local Band category. Several students from Baton Rouge Community College’s entertainment technology program will assist with this project, as well as LAF members.
Louisiana Arts & Film Organization is a nonprofit organization formed to help artists and filmmakers in Louisiana. For more information on submitting to this contest or joining Louisiana Arts and Film, visit www.louisianaartsandfilm.org. You must be a registered member to enter the competition.
