We have gotten multiple requests to push back the submission deadline for the Pens to Lens Student Screenplay Competition, and so, we've done just that. The new deadline is 11:59 PM on Sunday, March 9. This gives students two more weekends to work on their screenplays.

Now only that, but we're also adding a screenwriting workshop to the calendar on Saturday, March 8. Details will be coming soon!

CMM's biggest event of the year, Pens to Lens, is kicking off! The student screenwriting competition is accepting submissions now, but the form will close at 11:59 PM on February 28, 2025. There is still time for students to write a screenplay for consideration. So, if you know any students from K-12, spread the word!

"The Blue-Ooze Brothers" wins the 2025 48-Hour Film Competition.

The prompt that this film needed to include was:

1. Prop: Blue Liquid
2. Line of dialogue: "Where did they go?"
3. Character: a grump

Congratulations to this team and to everyone who made a movie this year! Making a movie is the real prize.
