Apple Insomnia Film Festival

Apple Insomnia Film Festival is geared towards young people attending high school or college. The goal of the festival is for a group of students to create a short film under 3 minutes long that includes several required aspects chosen by Apple. The film festival has been hosted since 2006. The 2007 season yielded more than 3,000 entries to Apple. Only approximately 1900 of the entries made their way to the gallery for voting. The voting started more than a day after it was scheduled to, and the voting process has been frustrating to many.

In late November 2007, the two grand prize winners of the festival were announced. The Public Rating Grand Prize Winner was the short film "Hobopus" made by Vassar Filmmakers. The Celebrity Judges Pick was "Imagine" made by the Advent Creative Team. A third prize, the Slingjam Creative Award, was given to Team Geezers for their film "Suburban Tea."

The films can be viewed on the Apple Insomnia Film Festival main site.
