The 2008 Western Regional Grand Finale of Campus MovieFest -- the world's largest student film festival -- showcased phenomenal short movies, music, and more from November 15-16. Thousands of the top student filmmakers and musicians from around the West Coast came together in San Francisco at venues including the Great American Music Hall, Sundance Cinemas Kabuki, and the Regency Center. Special guests included Adam Savage, co-host of Mythbusters, who received the coveted Campus MovieFest Golden Tripod Award. |

| Prizes
We know students participate in CMF to tell their stories... but hundreds of thousands of dollars in prizes this year didn't hurt either. Seattle U students had a chance to win Apple laptops, iPods, mobile phones from AT&T, trips to Cannes and to meet studio execs, $10,000 cash grants, and more, just by creating an amazing short movie or showing up to enjoy the red carpet finales.

Guidelines
The most important movie guidelines are that the submissions must be five minutes or less created during Campus MovieFest week. The only people who can film, edit, and direct are your teammates, who must be current students, faculty, or staff of your university. Others not from your school are welcome to appear in your movie. Also, permission is needed for any music used in the movies that's not original -- fortunately, CMF provides you with thousands of tracks to consider from top local artists. And, of course, follow your school's conduct code. |
