$\"\"$ <\/a>I received an email about an event that I thought some Buffet readers may want to participate in. The folks over at The Pluralism Project<\/a> have brought to my attention that the Interfaith Film Festival<\/a> is accepting submissions! Submissions are due on January 31, 2011, which doesn’t leave us with much time to lollygag about. Here’s some details:<\/p>\n

This is a showcase, a platform, and a foundation upon which to present your religion and beliefs in a good and positive light. The InterFaith Film Festival collects and shares stories about religious experiences that inform and inspire, whether religiously specific, inter-religious, secular, or otherwise. <\/p>\n

We invite you to contribute short films, with a duration of less than \u00bd hour, that inform and inspire, including: amateur or professional videos, documentaries, short stories, fables, lectures, sermons, parables, comedy, interviews, speeches, animation, slide shows, variety programs, musical performances, poetry readings, Scriptural recitations\/chanting, and additionally; (you are also welcome to enter feature films longer than \u00bd hour, and we may post links to these films).<\/p>\n

How the System Works:<\/p>\n

All entries and selections are made in good Faith and on the honor system.<\/p>\n

You can upload one or more entries through your own YouTube account, and then send us an email at ifff2011ce@gmail.com with:<\/p>\n

1.) your notification of entry or entries to the IFFF 2011CE,
\n2.) the link to each entry on YouTube,
\n3.) your designation of the specific religious\/secular affiliation or affiliations or inter-religiousness of each entry, and
\n4.) your synopsis, of 100 words or less, of each entry.<\/p>\n

Instead of creating your own YouTube account, you are welcome to log into the YouTube account, \u201cUndergroundGriot\u201d, with the email address, undergroundgriot@gmail.com , and password, \u201cinterFaith\u201d, and upload entries through the \u201cUndergroundGriot\u201d YouTube account, and proceed with steps 1.), 2.), 3.), and 4.).<\/p>\n

All entries are screened for appropriateness before inclusion within the InterFaith Film Festival in April 2011.<\/p>\n

For more information, contact ifff2011ce@gmail.com<\/p>\n

You may remember that back in July I made sure to tell you about The Pluralism Project’s photo contest<\/a>. If you go here you can see the winners<\/a> that were announced in September.<\/p>\n

If any readers decide to enter, definitely let the rest of us know so we can cheer you on!<\/p>\n
