Teen Place at the Schaumburg Township District Library is seeking submissions for it's second annual Teen Film Fest. The deadline for submissions is 11:59 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 7. Anyone age 12 through 19 may submit short films to be judged and publicly viewed during the fest scheduled for 6 p.m., Wednesday, Oct. 21 in Teen Place. Prizes will be awarded to the winners.

Rules for entries include a maximum film length of seven minutes. Longer films will not be accepted. Entries must be uploaded to the director's Youtube account, with a link emailed to studio@stdl.org. Those who do not have a Youtube account can load the film file onto a DVD and turn it in at the Teen Place Desk on the second floor of the library, 130 S. Roselle Rd., Schaumburg. A completed entry form must be submitted for each film. Anyone planning to create a film for the fest is welcome to use the library's production studio and may book a timeslot by contacting Jeremy Slayton at (847) 923-3243 or sending an email to studio@stdl.org. Detailed rules and tips are available on the library's website at teen.schaumburglibrary.org.
