To those involved in film about the human cultural heritage:
Your time is running out! Only eight days remain to submit entries
for the 2010 edition of The Archaeology Channel International Film and
Video Festival. This is the only international competition for this
genre in the entire Western Hemisphere and a wonderful showcase for
your work. Our deadline for receipt of entries is October 15, 2009.
TAC Festival 2010 takes place May 18-22, 2010, in the Soreng Theater
of the Hult Center for the Performing Arts here in Eugene, Oregon,
USA. Attached here is the entry form with our guidelines. Please
read the guidelines carefully, as we depend on you for accurate
information. Further information is posted at
http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/TACfestival.shtml.
Have you been procrastinating? Please do not wait to send your
entries, because a burdensome flood of entries at the last moment will
slow down our review and notification process. In previous years,
some entries regrettably were rejected because of errors in entry
forms or problems with the film review copies. If you allow plenty of
time for these problems to be resolved, you can help assure that you
will not be excluded from consideration. Also, we encourage you to
make plans to attend the Festival to represent your films and also to
participate in our Conference on Cultural Heritage Film.
For our last Festival, we received 87 entries from 25 countries. We
hope to exceed those numbers this year and to attract the world’s best
films in our genre to this competition, but we need your help to
accomplish this. With your support and participation, we can continue
to grow TAC Festival as a promotional tool for your good work.
Please share this announcement with others you know who may have films
suitable for entry. Many thanks and best wishes to you all.
