PFN – Call for Submissions to In The Mood Magazine. Theme: Ten
In honour of our 10th issue, we’re getting literal and asking for submissions on film, TV, music videos, and pop culture relating to the number 10! This could look like: Cinema’s 10 Most Ineffectual Therapists, movies with “10” in the title, 10 Times I Fell Asleep in the Theatre, or movies celebrating their 10-year anniversary. At In The Mood, we don’t believe in taking ourselves too seriously, and this might be our least serious theme yet!*
*But on a serious note, please read our full guidelines below before submitting ???? This special issue will only feature 10 pieces, so send us your best!
– Theme: TEN
– Deadline: April 30th, 2024
– Word count for completed pieces: max 1,000 words for features, max 300 words for film diaries
– Honorarium: $30 CAD for features, $20 CAD for film diaries
???? Some ideas for inspiration:
– 10-year anniversaries
– Movies from 1910 or 2010 (but not ‘11s to ‘19s)
– Top/Bottom 10 lists
– 10 blindspots (and what you thought of them after watching)
– Movies with “10” in the title (e.g. 10 Things I Hate About You, 10, 10 Items or Less, Ten Years, How To Lose A Guy in 10 Days)
– What you loved watching when you were 10
– If you had 10 days left to live, what would you watch?
– 10 times I ___ during a movie (e.g. cried, fell asleep, got horny, screamed)
