| It is SO on! |
| That's right! It's the 2009 Proven In The Northeast CALL FOR ENTRIES! |
| It's never too early to start the Proven call for entries. While the deadline isn't until the end of August, Proven film makers are hard at work now, knowing that August will be here in a blink of an eye. So SUBMIT! We feel it's important to emphasize here as well, that anyone, anyone can submit. Be you pro film maker, or rank amateur. It doesn't cost anything, so put together a killer film and send it in. |

And this is a HUGE year! That's right! We are blowing out the 5th anniversary of Proven at the Rye Airfield in Rye NH! It's going to be huge! Music! Food! Art! Pro Athletes! and of course 10 of New Englands Best Boardsports films! It's going to be ginormous and not to be missed. There will be all sorts of news coming up over the coming weeks and months so keep checking in... |
| And films this year? Same as always, 7 minutes or less, surf/skate/snow only, made primarily in New England and once again, focus on story. We have had films in the past few years that would have won the festival and taken home the prize save for their lack of even a thread of story. We aren't saying films need to be dialogue heavy, but some sort of thread holding the film together will give a film a leg up on the competition.

| To the right you can see the 2008 Proven TV special that is airing on the RSN network nationwide to over 54 million viewers! (big file- be patient!) Your film could be part of this years broadcast! SUBMIT! |

The 2008 Peoples Choice! After the contest in '08 we put it to the public as to which film they thought was their favorite! The peoples choice part of the contest went until the new call for enties so essentially the public had 3 months to decide whether they thought the Proven judges had picked right. Well, the winner is.....Railing Against! Check it out here. The snowboarding film by Scott Barber handily defeated the competition. Scott will be receiving a POV cam set up for use in his future film making. So Congratulations to our film makers. As always, if you think you could do better with your own film, the PROVE IT! Submit your film for the 2008 Proven Festival! |
