14th Annual Slamdance Film Festival

The 14th Annual Slamdance Film Festival, scheduled to take place, January 17 - 25, 2008, in Park City, Utah, officially launched its Call for Entries today. "We are currently accepting short and feature film submissions in all genres for the 2008 edition of the festival. Submission forms, rules and regulations are available on the Slamdance web site - www.Slamdance.com. The early submission deadline is August 27, 2007, and includes a significant entry fee discount. The final submission deadline is Oct. 9.

The 2007 Festival received more than 3,500 submissions from all over the world, but only 20 features in the narrative and documentary feature categories combined screened in the main competition, which is strictly devoted to films without domestic theatrical distribution, from first-time feature directors, working with relatively low budgets. Slamdance has remained true to its founding mandate that it is a Festival "by filmmakers, for filmmakers," whereby the programming team is comprised of filmmakers, many of whom are Slamdance alumni.

Slamdance will screen about 100 films in total. All film selections will be posted on the 2007 Festival page during the second week of December. Presenting sponsors of the 2008 Slamdance Film Festival are Kodak and fox21. Additional sponsors will be announced as they are confirmed.
