10.24.11 Screening Selections Announced.

The film selection process has finally ended and the official selections for the 7th Annual Seguin Film & Arts Festival have been announced. Being our first year back, we have fewer selections and therefore have opted not to present category awards in the Independent Film competition. Additional details about each film, including a full schedule, have also been posted.

The Seguin Cultural Arts Foundation is sponsoring a scavenger hunt-like community photography contest to coincide with this year's Seguin Film & Arts Festival. The contest is open to photographers of all ages and abilities.

08.10.11 The 7th annual Seguin Film & Arts Festival will run from November 4-6, 2011.

The 7th annual Seguin Film & Arts Festival is now accepting short films for this year's competition to be held November 4-6 at the Palace Theatre in downtown Seguin. The winner of the festival will receive the Golden Pecan award to be presented on the evening of Saturday, November 5. A student competition will follow on November 6. Film festival entries must be received by October 11.

For those interested in films of the longer variety, we've added a new competition this year -- the Independent Feature competition. This competition will showcase independent feature films and will be judged and awarded separately from the other competitions.

The Independent Short competition for 2011 will again include the "Short Short" category for films that are 5 minutes or less. Films entered in all other categories -- Documentary, Foreign Language, Drama, Comedy, Animation, Music Video, and Horror -- must be 45 minutes or less. The student films are not divided into categories and all compete against each other.

To participate in the festival as a filmmaker, artist, volunteer, or sponsor, please contact the Seguin Cultural Arts Foundation at or 830-372-1928.
