Short Notice: Show your film at Glastonbury Festival

Want to show your film on the big screen at Glastonbury Festival? You’ve got till Fri 29th May to get a DVD in. 

THE Glastonbury Festival will have 2 25m² screens back- to- back broadcasting a mix of short films, archive footage, gaming sessions, classic pop and highlights of the BBC’s coverage of the Festival from 10.00am to 3.00am every day.

With a total of 85 hours worth of programming time to fill we are inviting organisations from around the region to submit a selection of material that they would like to showcase to a potential audience of 177,000 people, including:

  • Short films and animations (up to 8 minutes long).
  • Documentaries (themes might include sport, sustainability, music, evolution, the natural world and landscape).
  • Digital art works/installations.
  • Archive footage (including footage of great sporting, musical and festival moments).

There are no specific themes or categories for the 2009 call, but we would ask you to bear in mind that:

  • The screens will be programmed by a professional team in line with BBC guidelines (including a 9pm “watershed”), so we need to appeal to children and families as well as to an adult audience.
  • Films will need to have a very immediate appeal to engage an audience that, for the most part, will be on the move between venues (for those familiar with the site, the screens will be immediately opposite what used to be the “Left Field” and adjacent to “the meeting point” – a very busy junction).
  • The screens will be in full daylight for much of the time so fine detail may well be lost.

 

Format and details for submission:

  • All proposed content should be submitted in DVD format.
  • Send submissions to Cathy Gremin, South West Screen, St Bartholomews Court, Lewins Mead, Bristol, BS1 5BT
  • For further information, or if you have any questions contact Cathy Gremin or Dan Obi
  • Deadline Friday May 29th 2009

    When I originally commented I clicked the -Notify me when new comments are added- checkbox and now each time a comment is added I get four emails with the same comment. Is there any way you can remove me from that service? Thanks!
