Now Accepting
Submissions
ATLANTA, GA -- - The
Tupac Amaru Shakur
Foundation (TASF) is
asking innovative
filmmakers from
around the world to
submit their work
for inclusion in the
Tupac Amaru Shakur
Film Festival. This
year's festival is
scheduled to take
place on November
10, 2007 at the
Tupac Amaru Shakur
Center for the Arts
in Atlanta, Georgia.
The event will start
at 2:00PM.
The inaugural
event garnered
global interest
culminating with a
rapturous crowd
viewing the
documentary "The Hip
Hop Project." Actor
Bruce Willis and
actress/rapper Queen
Latifah joined
forces to bring this
film to the big
screen. "We are
looking to grow this
annual event and
create a forum for
filmmakers of all
ages to showcase
their work," says
Afeni Shakur,
President and
Founder of TASF.
For
consideration,
applicants (either
individually or in a
group) are invited
to submit their
work. A jury of
established
professionals will
review and judge the
entries and select
one film to be
screened in the
"Selective Choice"
film category. The
winning filmmaker or
team will have the
unique opportunity
to speak to the
audience at the
Tupac Center
following the
screening.
