Artlightenment 2011 Film Fest seeking films (10/25 deadline)

Artlightenment 2011 A Film Festival about Art, Artists and the Art of Existence.



Please email me at robynmorshead@gmail.com if you are a filmmaker and would like to be considered for Artlightenment 2011.

You can also submit online at www.artlightenment.com film submission page.


Participating artists have been able to attend workshops from other artists successful in their fields at the festival. Artlightenment was started in 2009 as a visual Arts Festival featuring paintings and sculptures. The idea has always been to elevate the artist and make them more successful as artists through participation in this event.
And this year we have added to this line-up of workshops.

In 2011 a Film Festival has been added because I see the importance of film
in the promotion of all the arts.
I want this festival to help encourage collaboration between the different art fields.

The films should be about art, artists and the art of existence.
There will be an Artlightenment award for the Best Film as well as best fiction
and non-fiction films.

As a rule films need to be up to 10 minutes long and should be suitable for
a younger audience.
Longer films could be accepted too but I would like to give as
many opportunities to filmmakers particularly in Nashville.

The jury reserves the right to only accept one film but exceptions could be made.

If your film is accepted by the Jury a DVD will need to be mailed by Oct 25
