AMAA Calls For Entries From Film-Makers!

The Africa Film Academy (AFA) invites film-makers to submit their feature, short, and documentary works for consideration for the 8th African Movie Academy Awards (AMAA), which takes place in April 2012.

The deadline for all submissions is 30 December with nominations announced in February next year. Submission forms can be downloaded from their website.

Since its inception in 2005, AMAA has remained a continent-wide platform to honour and celebrate the best in the art of film making and the professionals who make the industry the pride of Africa.

Each completed entry form must be accompanied by all the supporting materials listed on the submission forms, including the synopsis of the film, the list of credits, marketing stills of the film, filmographies of the directors and producers, 5 DVD copies of the film and proof of the right to submit.

Only films produced and released between December 2010 and December 2011 would be entered for the 2012 celebration of African Cinema.
All films must indicate year of copyright. The Africa Film Academy will not accept any film that exceeds the 120 min run as a feature or a short film that is longer than 40 minutes.

TheAMAAs celebrated their 7th edition on 27 March this year. Held annually in Nigeria, the AMAAs has a reputation for being one of the most glamorous African entertainment industry event of its kind. Evolving from a one-day event, televised live, to a diarized annual African event it is now an established engagement platform for film-makers, industry professionals and all creative industry stakeholders.

The primary aim of the African Movie Academy Awards (popularly known as the AMAA Awards) is to facilitate the development and showcase the social relevance of African film and cinema.

Over the years numerous international media representatives, Hollywood celebrities, Nigerian politicians, other African politicians, journalists, film industry professionals, actresses and actors have attended the award presentation from all across Africa and beyond.
