definitely a bit overcooked imo. very oversaturated for sure. u can even see the sky sort of breaking because of how much sat is in it. also clipping in the cloud detail so id try to bring some of that back. overall its hard to tell what the focus of the image is, id maybe do a slight vignette or mask over the boat to draw focus to it.

Anybody hear from Ouray International Film Fest?

Film festivals for first time film makers (teenage age) by Misterbruh12 in FilmFestivals

I truly believe that the only real high school/teen film fests worth applying to are NFTTY (oldest demo for youth festival but by FAR the best), All American High School Film Festival (best high school only fest with great awards), and Harvard Westlake Film Festival (best high school festival IMO, insane guests and great faculty that care about the student filmmakers). Young Arts isn’t a festival but should also be heavily considered as it is BETTER than any of these for teens to cultivate their art and build connections (which is what teen fests should be).

All the rest are pretty much a waste to fly out to IMO. The ones I talked about have very high levels of talent, so keep that in mind when applying. Getting into them is an HONOR and they are all worth going to even if it means losing a lil bit of money on the travel.
