Prizes

This year's festival will award the top three films the following monetary prizes, also for the first time CANS will feature an Audience award where YOU the viewer can vote for your favorite film.
First Place: $200
Second Place: $100
Third Place: $50
Audience Prize: $50
The $10 entry fee for submitting films is necessary for the film to be considered for prize money. CANS is still open to screening films at the festival without entry fees, but these films cannot win a prize, and can only be shown during the festival if time is alloted for them.

Very special thanks to the Film Department at William & Mary for making prize money possible!
