This year's edition has a Mega Monster Movie focus.
This juried competition awards cash prizes to the top three entries: $500 for Best of Fest and $200 each for Best Sci Fi and Best Fantasy selections. Winning shorts will be featured at the Science Center's First Friday program May 1, 2020, and will screen in their OMNIMAX® Theater. In addition to the cash-prize winners, additional works will be chosen to screen throughout the First Friday program. This year's First Friday theme is Mega Monster Movies. Filmmakers are encouraged to incorporate a mega monster into their films, along the lines of Godzilla, King Kong, or Pacific Rim.
CSL will screen the winning film as part of the St. Louis Filmmakers Showcase (SLFS). CSL will also consider other submissions for inclusion in SLFS, held annually each July at Washington University.
