Jordan the country not in Festival Search

if you go to http://www.fest21.com/en/festivals and search for Jordan under Country it's not there. Please add Jordan to all your country lists. I have mentioned this a couple of years back and still.

Country Jordan missing in dropdown list

In the Festival Organization section of the film festival info, there is no Jordan in the Country dropdown list.

Reinstating the "Access reserved for festival organizer" page ?

Hi,

unfortunately a redirect at the festivaldeail page level doesn't change the fact that when filmmakers search for "Calling for entries this month " on filmfestivals.com, the festivals with outdated  deadlines won't show up in the search results.

I wonder if it wouldn't be easier for you to just temporarily  reinstate the "Access reserved for festival organizer" page and let festival modify their filmfestivals.com listings until you are ready to merge the databases and move all listings to fest21.com.

thanks.

 

Yes: a redirect

We are implementing quickly a redirection advising users of our filmfestivals.com search pages to search on fest21 for more accurate data.

 

By the end of the Summer? anytyhing we can do about it sooner?

Hi, thanks for the reply,

by the end of the summer is a going to be way too late for us... Is there anything we can do to update the filmfestival.com submission deadline while you merge the databases? The wrong deadline is currently posted (Feb 28, 2009 instead of September 30, 2009) and this error is misleading and sending filmmakers away...

thanks

 

 

Merger of fest21 and filmfestivals databases

Hello,

We are in the process of merging both databases based on the fest21 technology and content. It should be done during this summer.

Synchronizing fest21 profile with filmfestivals.com

Hi,

A while back we did the migration to fest21.com and all went well. Unfortunately there is a problem: when we update the festival's profile on fest21.com, the filmfestivals.com profile (http://www.filmfestivalspro.com/servlet/JSCRun?obj=FichePro&CfgPath=ffs&...) doesn't get updated and the wrong submission deadline keeps coming up when someone searches our festival on filmfestivals.com. How can we update the filmfestivals.com listing?

thanks

WALLABOUT FILM FESTIVAL- BROOKLYN, NEW YORK CITY

Wallabout is: a collaborative project putting cultural assembly into explicit practice; a collective celebrating artists’ efforts and the co-production of art; a festival promoting the continuous flow of creative episteme and the techne. It is a question leading to a question leading to a question. Wallabout is committed to challenging our minds while exulting the works of to-day. Wallabout is about it all. First and foremost, efforts will go towards the moment of creative collision. We strive to deliver innovative work and host an atmosphere conducive for playful and intellectual discourse. The passion to bring people together cannot cease. The Wallabout Film Festival submerges itself in the evolution of film while acting as a liaison between creators and community. Particularly attributing the short film, we acknowledge the diversity of expression captured within motion picture. A short can challenge, entertain, and inspire its audience as aptly as a feature-length film. Perhaps a champion of brevity and simplicity, a piece could very well dip and delve into any complexity of our world, opening our eyes to something new.

We support the heart of the creative realm and wish to promote its essential role in our everyday lives. Be it in schools, on the street, or in a book, we believe the arts are not a supplement, but a necessity. You are an artist. We are an artist.

The spirit of independent filmmaking constantly pushes and remodels the standard. Whether created with state-of-the-art equipment or with the most basic devices, the accessibility to short film allows any ambitious visionary the opportunity to innovate. The format essentially cultivates this democratic approach to creative expression. Wallabout seeks entries that individually contribute towards this development of film and manifest the vast range of perspective.

Whether it is a film viewing or a casual discussion over chocolate, we very much believe in the importance of interaction within communities, Brooklyn, New York, and beyond. Though the world with its many differences seems to expand by the second, we hope to establish a neighborhood of understanding and curiosity while moving forward, together.

The Wallabout Film Festival will be held on Thursday, April 23, 2009, at Pochron Studios, 20 Jay Street, in Brooklyn, New York.

Selections will be judged by a panel that includes an array of filmmakers and artists and shall be evaluated in the categories of Fiction and Non-Fiction.

Entries are to be submitted on DVD or Blu-ray disc by the deadline of April 10, 2009, along with the official entry form. Run time must not exceed 8 minutes and the film should have been completed within the last year (finished after March 2008). All guidelines and requirements must be followed in order to
be eligible.

Entries are to be mailed to:

The Program in Critical and Visual Studies
Dekalb Hall, Office 315
Pratt Institute
200 Willoughby Avenue
Brooklyn, NY 11205

The content ranges from film students and emerging filmmakers through to professional productions which have been recognized at major site festival like Cannes, Sundance, Berlin, etc.

We’re a film festival on the viewer’s terms and on the go, and we’re based on open distribution, that imagines the viewer as the start of the distribution chain – we encourage you to curate your own festival experience, comment and vote, take and download the content, watch it where you will, and share and forward it through your nearest and dearest…

For Immediate Release:

WRITER/DIRECTOR BOBBY GOINS COMPLETES PRINCIPAL PHOTOGRAPHY ON
"THE BARBERSHOP CHRONICLES"

New Jersey filmmaker Bobby E. Goins has completed principal photography on his feature film "The Barbershop Chronicles ("TBC")." A dramedy about friends and foes in an insular New Jersey neighborhood Mr. Goins has mined his experience as a barber and barbershop owner to tell the story of honorable men and women, hilarious hijinks and high stakes in the 'hood’.

A spirited and confident professional, Mr. Goins has become a neighborhood fixture, but his profile began to rise considerably as he began his foray into filmmaking. It was something, he soon found out to his delight, that he was meant to do. After developing the script he gathered a great cast and crew and began to shoot. With all the challenges that filming entails he was able to trust both his instincts and his capacity for hard work and little sleep to ultimately succeed.

"The Barbershop Chronicles" has a cast that includes several talented actors that are familiar to television audiences. Carl Clemons, of HBO's "The Wire" was a staple of season four. This year he completed filming four features in addition to "TBC," including "Shelter," starring Julianne Moore and "Brooklyn's Finest," directed by award-winning director Antoine Fuqua ("Training Day.").

Bobby E. Goins' next step is a distribution deal. Toward this goal he will be entering "TBC" in several film festivals in 2009.
