Dear Filmmaker:
Thank you for entering your short film for the 2003 Canadian
Film Centre's
Worldwide Short Film Festival. However I regret to inform
you that your film
was not selected for this year's festival - we were faced
with the very
difficult task of selecting only 180 films and videos from
over 2,100
submissions, the largest amount to date.
This year's Festival will run from June 3-8 in Toronto and
will feature,
aside from competitive screenings, a Symposium, a Business
Centre and
special screenings including a spotlight on Brazil, Sci-Fi
shorts, Midnight
Mania and Classic Silent Comedies. Your submission tape will
be available
for viewing at the Video Library and your contact information
will be
published in our Marketplace Guide, provided to all Festival
Delegates. Last
year over 200 shorts were picked up for broadcast or distribution
as a
result of being included in the Video Library.
We do hope that you will be able to attend this year's Festival.
We have
introduced a Do-It-All Festival Pass, providing access to
all screening and
symposium events for $170. As a special offer to all filmmakers
who
submitted work to the Festival, if you purchase this pass
we will include
invitations to all Festival parties. These invitations are
usually only
available to registered delegates and will give you the opportunity
to meet
and network with filmmakers, buyers and distributors from
Canada and around
the world. For further information please email Mary Jane
Bolton at
wsffassistant@cdnfilmcentre.com. This offer is available for
a limited time
only. Please
visit our website, www.worldwidefilmfest.com where you will
find screening
times, locations and other helpful information.
We appreciate your interest in the Worldwide Short Film Festival
and
encourage you to continue submitting your work in the future.
Best regards,
Shane Smith
Director
