Posted yesterday, moved up because HUMP!
HUMP!—the Pacific Northwest’s biggest, best, and only amateur and/or locally-produced porn festival—returns this fall!
We previously announced the three extra-credit props for HUMP! 7 here on Slog—Super Soakers, duct tape, and the number 7—but there was a little something we held back for the official call-for-submissions in this week’s Stranger: HUMP!’s new prize packages. We’ve upped the runners-up purses in the Humor, Kink, and Sex categories from $250 to $500. And we’ve upped the “Best in Show” grand prize from $2,000 to $4,000. There will be seven HUMP! Awards this year:
· Best Humor: $1,000 First Prize, $500 First Runner-Up Prize
· Best Sex: $1,000 First Prize, $500 First Runner-Up Prize
· Best Kink: $1,000 First Prize, $500 First Runner-Up Prize
· Best in Show: $4,000 Grand Prize
The winners of HUMP! Awards are—as they have always been—determined by audience ballot. It’s possible that a film could win more than one award: filmmakers who created a submission that was kinky and funny could take home Best Kink and Best Humor and $2,000. It’s even possible that a single film—a hilariously kinky film with a scorching-hot sex scene that audiences adore—could sweep the HUMP!™ Awards and win Best Kink, Best Sex, Best Humor, Best in Show and take home $7,000.
HUMP! 7 submissions are due by October 7ish. HUMP! 7 goes down November 3rd, 4th and 5th at On the Boards in Seattle and November 17th, 18th and 19th at Cinema 21 in Portland.

Do you have the dates for HUMP?
Never mind! The article I read yesterday didn’t have any dates!
Underboob FTW
Well, that’s a pretty hot picture.
Do contestants have to be local? if so, what defines local? a resident?
No, 5, you don’t have to be local.
Is Polygamy Porn allowed?
Is that Taylor Swift in the pic?
I think Hump submitters should have the option of choosing if their videos are shown in Portland, Seattle, or both cities. As the popularity and audience of Hump expands the anonymity it affords diminishes.
A year or two ago, they said they were interested in more femdom and pegging. Did they get more or is that genre still still lacking submissions? I’m wondering if I could get my sweetie to work up an entry
What has the production quality been like in the past? It’s hard to imagine getting someone else to shoot us.
