This Is Utah Photo Contest

Inspiration can strike in an instant: from a single image — a glance out the window or a double take on a place. It’s right there in an otherworldly landscape, a lonely gas station or twilight on a suburban street. Our job is to inspire filmmakers to bring their production to Utah and we’re asking for your help. Do your photos tell a story?
Submit your best shots of your favorite Utah spot and the best will be used to inspire the next wave of filmmakers at the 2018 Sundance Film Festival.
Utah is a big state, and while we’ve traveled a lot of it, we’re guessing there are undiscovered locations ready to tell great stories.
A single photo will be selected for the Grand Prize along with several Honorable Mentions. Winners will be announced on December 28, 2017.
