Entries are judged by a panel of professionals with years of experience in many aspects of cinema and television. All entries which meet the Redemptive Film Festival's strict standards of excellence will receive the Redemptive Storyteller Award (for more information, see Awards page). There will be a special Redemptive Film Boot Camp which will run concurrently with film screenings on Friday, November 12. Sessions will include, Film Animation, Marketing the Redemptive Film, Developing the Story and Cost Cutting Techniques. The Jurors' favorites are screened at our Grand Awards Ceremony to be held at the Regent University School of Communication Main Auditorium, Saturday, November 13, 2010 at 5:00 P.M.
For the purposes of this competition, a redemptive film is any film whose main purpose is to depict the act of redeeming, rescuing, or delivering any person from a state of crisis or helplessness. We believe that most often, God uses humans to redeem other humans, though sometimes He intervenes through other methods. We are looking for films that portray this reality. Films which demean religion, include gratuitous violence, nudity or profanity are not suited for this competition. Films do not need to reflect Christian teachings but must adhere to basic Judeo-Christian Values, such as the respect for life, justice and morality.
