- Submit a comedic short: If you have a short that fits within our festival requirements, we want to see it! This can be a piece you wrote and filmed for other festivals or for your own entertainment! (See below for all the requirements)
- Submit a short inspired by a line of dialogue: If you're looking for a challenge, we'd love to see what you can do with a simple line of dialogue. Write, film, and submit a 5-minute video that includes the line "It's a ten" for consideration in The 2019 Dallas Comedy Festival!
- Film Requirements: Whether you're submitting a comedy short, or a short inspired by a line of dialogue, all shorts must meet the following requirements:
- No longer than 5-minutes in run time, including credits
- Must be original work and not include any copywritten material that you do not have permission to use
- Cannot be available for people to stream online before or during the 2019 Dallas Comedy Festival (i.e. not posted to Facebook or YouTube before March 31, 2019)
- Tell us about you and the film: Has your film, or other work, premiered at other festivals? Have you won any awards for your writing or filmmaking? Would this be the world premiere of your comedic short? Share it with us in your submission!
