This year we have finally made a short film contest, and we made it in
the Internet. This is importaint for two reasons: first, short films
section has never been a contest before, and we are happy that this
first competition is users' choice, because viewers are usually the most
honest audience. Second thing is the Internet - partly or fully, movig
into the interactivity is a powerfull tendency among the festivals, and
like it or not, it is tomorrow.
Also, it's locigal that first
Internet competition is short films one - shorts have always been the
most flexible and fresh area of the cinema. Most of the authors are
young and independent, so their films really reflect what they wanted to
say, especially if it is something linked to videoart, formal
experiments animation - short films are very good territory for the
experiments. For this year's contest we selected films that are very
different - by genre, by language, by author's point of view - and our
only request for the audience is not to be preconcieved. We are very
interested ourselves in the results of the competition.
