CALL FOR SUBMISSIONS
The Tenth Annual Prairie Tales Media Arts Tour
Metro Cinema Society in association with amaas (Alberta Media Arts Alliance Society) invites filmmakers, videographers, documentarians, and animators to submit their recently completed works to Prairie Tales, an annual touring program of short works by Alberta media artists.
In its tenth consecutive year, the Prairie Tales Tour celebrates the diversity of work created by artists in our province. In circulation over several months, Prairie Tales screens throughout Alberta and across Canada at media art centres, galleries, and schools.
You are eligible to submit your work to Prairie Tales if:
your work has been completed in the last 18 months
your work has a running time of 15 minutes or less
your primary residence is in Alberta
When submitting, please include a brief description of your work (including year of completion and original production format) as well as an artist's biography. Preview copies may be submitted on VHS or DVD only. Prairie Tales 10 will be curated by the tour coordinator and a peer jury. Artists whose work is included in the program will be paid the CARFAC rate for multiple film/video screenings. There is no submission fee.
The deadline for submissions is 5:00pm on February 15, 2008. Please send your submission to:
