Darklight Wants You!

Ireland’s premier festival for digital filmmakers, animators and artists wants YOU!

Well, we want your work, anyhow.

The 2008 Darklight Festival will take place from Thursday 26th – Sunday 29th June. Mark your calendars.

Darklight explores the convergence of art, film, and technology and focuses on work that challenges concepts, visual aesthetic, narrative, access, methods of production, and dialogue, through contemporary film-making techniques. We support and encourage work that pushes technological boundaries and displays creative excellence. Our mission is to nurture new talent and to create bold new possibilities for the imagination.

Which is where you come in.

As ever, Darklight have an open submission screening policy. We want to see your work. Eligible for entry are feature films, documentaries, animations, experimental video works, music videos, commercial work, motion graphics, game sequences, live-action shorts and student productions. There are no restrictions on genre, length or number of submitted works.

Darklight actively encourages the submission of contemporary works that demonstrate and explore the creative potential of digital technologies. The entries must use some sort of digital process in their production.

The official Call For Entries (complete with with on-line registering process) will be made on the Darklight website within the next seven days... So do stay tuned. And Happy New Year : )
