LONDON FILM FESTIVAL
17 October - 1 November 2007
The London Film Festival is committed to incorporate a strong presence for
avant-garde and artists' film & video in its programme. For several years,
we have presented a concentrated selection of artists' work, with many of
the makers attending screenings. This year's "avant-garde weekend" will take
place on 26-28 October 2007.
I am very be interested to hear about any works completed in the last two
years or currently in progress. If you are a film or video maker, please
send tapes of recent works for preview and consideration. If no previews are
available then send details of the project. Please note that works will be
shown in theatrical screenings. The festival is unable to present
installations or gallery-based work.
Official regulations require that works will receive their UK theatrical
premiere in the Festival. Prior theatrical, UK Festivals, UK television
screenings, UK dvd / video releases or internet transmission films from
entry. To be eligible for screening in the festival, works must have been
made within the last two years, or be archival restorations that have not
yet shown in the UK.
Further information on eligibility and regulations are on the LFF website :-

Preview materials can be sent to the Festival office (clearly labelled for
the attention of Mark Webber), or preferably sent directly to me. Please
contact me for addresses, or if you would like additional information.
Unsolicited submissions are welcomed and there are no application forms to
complete.
