The DOTA 2 short film contest is an opportunity for content creators to display their wares and get in on the action of The International. The contest runs in the lead up of the DOTA 2 International 8, which starts on the 20th of August. The entries in the short film contest must limit their videos to 90 seconds and it must also be about DOTA 2. Here’s the link to the rules. The top 3 finalists will received 1st $25,000, 2nd $10,000 and 3rd $5,000.
Here’s a link to Reddit, which has the full selection of short films for you to check out. It was very hard to choose between them all as they’re mostly unique and fun to watch. Below are my favourites so far:
