ARE YOU READY FOR YOUR BIG BREAK?

If you haven’t yet seen our Rogue Spotlights on what it takes to be a filmmaker in Hollywood, the best lesson you can take from them is the following from director Mark Duplass: “everyone is constantly asking me, ‘how did you break in? How did you do it?’ You have to be invited, is really the answer.”

So consider this BIG BREAK MOVIE CONTEST our formal invitation to you – the talented, up-and-coming filmmakers of our future – to break down the walls of Hollywood. We here at Rogue want to encourage the original independent filmmaking that is wanting from the current Hollywood big-budget culture.
