Competition programme – 45 films from 11 countries

 
The work of the selection committee is now finished. After reviewing more than 20 hours of material, the committee decided that 45 films, roughly one third of 156 submitted films, will be included in the competition programme screened at the 6th edition of the Short Film Festival FF600.
 
The competition programme consists of 5 animated films, 8 experimental films, 14 documentary films and 18 short fiction films. Works in the competition programme will compete for the Jury prize and the best film of the festival will be awarded the Grand Prix.
 
The selection committee estimated that overall quality of films submitted in two categories – one minute films and music videos – does not meet the festival criteria. Although some of the works submitted in these two categories exceeded the expectations of the committee, the committee considered it unfair to organize a competition without guaranteeing an appropriate general level of quality.
 
Therefore the committee has decided that this year these two categories will not be included in the competition programme.
 
 
5 May 2010
156 submissions from 18 countries
 
There are only three weeks left until the start of the 6th edition of the Short Film Festival FF600.
 
From the 26th to the 28th of May the Festival will present short films produced in 2009 and 2010.
 
Authors from 18 countries have submitted 156 films, totalling to 21 hours of material. Most of the films come from EU countries, but we have also received submissions from USA, Canada, Ukraine, Norway, Croatia, Serbia and Israel.
 
Now a selection process is under way to select the best films that will enter the competition programme and will be screened at the festival.

Free submission (no applicaton fee)

Dear authors of short films
 


As you know this is the first year the Short Film Festival FF600 introduced application fee.

We were forced to introduce this exceptional condition, because we did not receive sufficient funds from our sponsors to cover all the costs of the festival.

Today we received additional funds that will enable us to organize the festival without the application fee.

We kindly invite all authors that might have hesitated because of the application fee to submit their works.

Application fees already paid will be refunded.

Deadline for submission: 26th April 2010 (date on the postmark); submissions from abroad must reach the organizer by 29th April 2010.

About the festival
 
The primary goal of the Short Film Festival FF600 is to present contemporary works in the field of short film and video to the public and to professional film-makers.

The programme of FF600 is divided into 6 categories:
  • animation,
  • music video,
  • one-minute-films,
  • experimental films,
  • short fiction and
  • documentary films.
The submitted works compete in individual category for the jury prize. The jury, consisting of three professional film-makers each working in a different field of film production, awards the most outstanding work in each category. The jury also awards prize for the Best film of the festival.

The Festival does not focus on any particular theme. Authors are free to submit works addressing all kinds of topics, the only limitations are length, that should not exceed 20 minutes (respectively 1 minute for the one-minute-category), and year of production.

Thus the festival programme gives an insight into current short film production and into themes, which seem relevant to the authors.
