Calling All Kid Filmmakers!
The 90-Second Newbery
is now accepting video submissions from Minnesota’s young filmmakers.
Selected Minnesota-made movies will be screened with
submissions from other states at the first-
ever Minnesota 90-Second Newbery Film Festival in February.
How You Can Help
A 90-Second Newbery film tells the story of a Newbery Award
winner or honor book in 90 seconds
or less. We’d love to see your community’s creative kids
submit their movies. The 90-Second
Newbery website
features dozens of films to spark ideas, how-to guides and complete
instructions
for uploading films. The submission deadline for
consideration in February’s screening is
December 20, 2014. Please help spread the word about this
fun opportunity.
What’s Next
The 90-Second Newbery Film Festival will be hosted by author
(The Order of Odd-Fish) and 90-Second
Newbery founder James Kennedy and renowned local author
Kelly Barnhill (The Witch’s Boy). Join us
on Saturday, February 28, 2015 from 3:00-4:30 pm at Hennepin
County Library — Minneapolis Central’s
Pohlad Hall. The festival is free and open to all.
