Now comes the easy part: enjoying the 18 films that were submitted after the epic 50-hour filmmaking competition in Renton FilmFrenzy V.

And for the film producers and their cast and crew the payoff will come Tuesday,  when the Curvee Awards are presented at the Curvee Awards Gala at the Renton IKEA Peforming Arts Center at Renton High School, 400 S. Second St.

The gala is free; it starts at 7 p.m. Jim Dever with KING-TV will again host the event. The stars of the shows are the four-minute films that will compete for Curvees and cash prizes.

New this year are the edible treats before the gala. Taco Time will have its food truck, “Traveler,” that will give away food to the first 250 people attending the gala.

Last year’s popular screening of all films entered in FilmFrenzy returns to the Renton Civic Theatre,  507 S. Third St., on Monday. The screening is 7 p.m. to 9 p.m.

And still FilmFrenzy Week is still not done. Voting begins Wednesday at Rentonreporter.com for the People’s Choice Award.
