Here are the ground rules:

  • Films can be no longer than 1 minute.
  • Film must illustrate the theme of “March Madness” however you choose to interpret that.
  • Film must also incorporate an “X” in some way.  (cause it’s the 10th deadCENTER…get it?) Again, however you choose to interpret that.
  • Films must be delivered on DVD on March 8th, no later than 5:00pm at Coffee Slingers, 1015 N. Broadway Ave in OKC.  We’ll have a dropbox set out for you.
  • Please include contact information directly on the disk.
  • Select entries will be featured on the deadCENTERfilm.org website; if you have a YouTube or Vimeo account, send us a link so we can show you the love.

Hello and welcome to the new and improved deadCENTER website! As you can see, this isn’t just a fresh coat of paint, it’s a complete rebuild. We’ve tried to make it easier to navigate, better for mobile devices, and hopefully pretty as well. The front page is similar to what you’ve grown to know and love from our old site – the latest news and announcements about the festival. This page, however, is what we’re really excited about. We’ve named it “filmCENTRAL” because that’s precisely what we are aiming for. We want this to be the central location for discussion about independent film and culture in Oklahoma.
