SHIPPING
Cost of shipping exhibition prints to the festival is the responsibility of the entrant. Exhibition copies must be sent to the festival prepaid. The festival cannot accept responsibility for damage or loss of materials while in transit. Please use only plastic or bubble pack cases when shipping entries, and to help cut down on trash, try to use as little packaging material as possible!

A completed entry form and an entry fee must accompany each film or video. Entries must be submitted on 1/2" (standard VHS in NTSC format) videocassette or NTSC DVD. Foreign language work must be dubbed or subtitled in English. In addition to your entry, please enclose any press kits, reviews, or publicity materials. If possible, send a menu-less (instant play) DVD for screening. We actually prefer a DVD which includes a Sharpie-written title, contact name, and length of work on the disc, but it's not a perfect world.

After acceptance, the presentational format will need to be in our oiffice 14 days prior to festival. Be sure to indicate aspect ratio of your film/video as well as any other special presentational information. Festival League does not pay rental fees for submitted work that is programmed.

The festival jury will present awards to films and videos selected as best in these categories: Drama Feature and Short,  Comedy Feature and Short, Documentary Feature and Short, Experimental, Animation, Horror, Sci-Fi, "AUFF the Wall" and "Best of Atlanta."
