(Call for Entries) DC Underground Film Festival
Hello,
My friend is helping to organize this event and is very interested in people
creating experimental film/video work, this "call for entries" is open to
anyone that is interested, I think the entry cost is very nominal and the
turn out is strong. Hopefully a lot of people on this list are interested in
extending the idea of micro into the visual world, so here is a chance to
show some of your interesting work/experiments.
Please feel free to post this or offer to others whim you feel would find
this of interest.
Thanks for your time and bandwidth.

The 2nd annual DC Underground Film Festival (DCUFF) has officially opened
its 2004 Call for Entries, accepting submissions of independently produced
films that challenge the Hollywood mindset and swallow the mainstream. The
entry deadline is January 2, 2004 and the culminating festival will take
place in May 2004 at the historic Carnegie Institute in downtown Washington,
DC. Entry forms can be printed at the DCUFF website at www.dcuff.org. DCUFF
accepts film, video and digital work of all length, genre and format.
Last year hundreds of filmmakers from all over the U.S, Europe, Asia, and
Canada submitted their films and 65+ of them debuted in Washington, DC to an
audience of over 800 film buffs.
"Each film proved that creative minds working on shoe-string budgets can
rock the nations capital even if it is home to the staid and unimaginative
political elite," said Allyson K. Festival Founder and Director.
The DCUFF is billed as a festival that offers unlimited freedom to
independent filmmakers and artists to experiment and exhibit their radical
creations in documentary, claymation and animation, and experimental art
movies. " The DC Underground Film Festival offers some of the latest in
thought-provoking cinema that embraces the high-concept/low-budget style of
filmmaking, " says the Washington City Paper.
DCUFF which serves as a venue for independent film-makers to combine their
artistic talents and forge new ideas for experimentation was started in
2002. It continues to be organized by an advisory committee programmed by
active filmmakers, artists, activists, and film enthusiasts ranging from
Cynthia Connolly to Brian Duss.
