2013 Submissions Are Now Open

The international Visions Film Festival & Conference is now accepting film and paper submissions from undergraduate filmmakers and film scholars for the 2013 festival year.
The festival date is set for April 5, 2013. Film and paper selections will be announced in late February.

Hosted by the Film Studies Department at the University of North Carolina Wilmingtin, Visions is the first international film festival and conference dedicated exclusively to showcasing and celebrating undergraduate work in both film production and film studies. Every year, the Visions programming committee brings together a diverse group of talented rising filmmakers and film scholars from undergraduate programs around the world for a highly-attended day full of screenings, lectures, Q&As, workshops, events, and networking.

SUBMITTING A FILM OR PAPER

Entry forms, guidelines, and deadlines can be found online at www.visionsfilm.org/submit. All film and paper submissions must have been completed between Fall 2011 and Spring 2013. No works-in-progress will be accepted. All submissions-related inquiries may be emailed to submissions@visionsfilm.org.

AWARDS

Previously accepted filmmakers and scholars have been eligible to win awards when their work was selected as exemplary in any of our categories. Visions honors excellence in narrative, documentary, experimental, and animation, as well as excellence in scholarship. In addition, attending filmmakers are eligible for Audience Choice Awards for film and scholarship. The Visionary Award, our highest honor, recognizes one student work in production or scholarship that stands out as a paradigm of the Visions mission statement.

Previous award winners have received gifts from DigiEffects, the Cucalorus Film Festival, Cinelab, Camera Motion Research, Corel, Pro-8, Working Films, Audio-Technica, Wavom, American Cinematographer, and Film Matters magazine.
