CLICK HERECASH PRIZES: HUMP! isn’t just about love and sex and laughs. HUMP! is also about cash prizes. There are two award categories in HUMP!—Humor and Hot—and a $2,000 first-place prize is awarded in both categories. (The winners are determined by audience vote.) We will also award a $500 second-place prize and a $250 third-place prize in both categories.
EXTRA CREDIT! We asked HUMP! filmmakers to use certain props and to shoot at certain locations so that audiences will know when they’re watching something made just for HUMP! This year’s extra-credit props: a pink slip (layoff or undergarment), Mormon undergarments, motorcycle boots, e-stim unit, Aplets & Cotlets. This year’s extra-credit locations: Voodoo Donuts, The Devil's Testicle(the ugly public art across from Powell's Books), City Hall Bathroom, The “Made in Oregon” Sign. Filmmakers were not required to use extra-credit props or locations, and not using them didn’t count against them with the HUMP! jury.
STUFF THE HUMP! JURY HOPES TO SEE: Fem-domme action, CFNM, pegging. Including these themes didn't get films into HUMP! automatically, but it gave them a serious leg up. There have been lots of films featuring tied up and/or submissive women over the last couple of years—not that there’s anything wrong with that—but turnabout is fair play, and the HUMP! jury is interested in seeing some women on top this year.
NEW TO HUMP!? HUMP! is safe, fun, and anonymous. People make films and give them to us; we make only two screening copies and return the originals. Our only copies are destroyed live onstage after the final screening. We’ve hosted DOZENS and DOZENS of HUMP! screenings over the last four years, with ZERO leaks! HUMP! lets you be a porn star for a weekend—not for life! And HUMP! films do not have to be hardcore. Animation, instructional videos, mechanical dogs, and sexy, nonexplicit shorts have all been featured in HUMP!
