The 2007 Wollombi Valley Short Film Festival has opened for business and already entries are coming in.The festival, presented by Valley Artists Inc., is held in September each year, and has been a superb showcase of local talent from the Hunter region and beyond.
Producer Janine Oliver decided to open for entries a little earlier this year so film makers could get their scripts finessed, shot and edited in time for the 24th August closing date. "It's heartbreaking when a really great film misses the deadline, and we have such fantastic practitioners in the region, we want to be able to give everyone the opportunity to get their work viewed."
The panel of judges is made up of professional film makers who highly value their contribution to the festival and mark this as one of their calendar highlights.
Screenings of the finalists will be held at Laguna Hall on Friday 21st September.
Entries can be of any genre, and up to 10 minutes in duration. Prize money is $500 for 1st, $300 for 2nd, $200 for 3rd, and a People Choice Award of $250 sponsored by Laguna Wine Bar. Entry forms can be printed off the Valley Artists website at www.valleyartists.org. Enquiries 02 4998 3419 or email filmfestival@valleyartists.org
