PASS THE WORD!
Top Quality DVDs Sought for Underwater Film Festival
Start assembling your best underwater video film footage for the SCUBA
Show 2008 underwater film festival. The 21st annual SCUBA Show is the
largest dive expo of its type in the U.S. and this year takes place
June 21-22 at the Long Beach Convention Center.
One of the most popular portions of the annual Southern California
SCUBA Show has been the unique continuous film festival. Films will be
screened digitally on a massive screen with state-of-the-art equipment
and viewed by thousands of attendees. Featured at past film festivals
have been footage and films from some of the world's greatest
underwater cinematographers. Even so, some of the most well received
films have been from non-professional and semi-professional underwater
camera operators.
For this year's show, the film festival will be wide open to this
talented group. The management of the popular annual dive convention is
conducting an aggressive all-out search for the best in underwater
video films. They are also opening up the category to include digital
still presentations set to music or narration. Submissions for
consideration should be new material, never before shown in a film
festival setting or on television. Films and digital slide shows of 5
to 25 minutes in length are preferred, but shorter is usually better.
Footage can be from anywhere in the world, but the video should contain
at least 1/3 to 1/5 underwater footage. Those films accepted for
screening will be paid an honorarium.
Deadline for DVD submission is March 14, 2008. For a complete
guideline sheet on submissions go to SCUBA Show 2008: Film Festival Guidelines
on the web.
