FLEX, the Florida Experimental Film/Video Festival, is now accepting submissions for its
third biennial competitive festival taking place February 17-22, 2009 in Gainesville, FL.
 The exclusive focus of the festival is on experimental short media, but we encourage
artists to challenge us to rethink what “experimental” means.  Work may draw on
documentary, animation, avant garde, underground, or other traditions—-or no traditions
at all.  Cash and in-kind prizes will be awarded in each of 4 categories (film/video,
small/large).  Previous jurors have included Craig Baldwin, Naomi Uman, Mike Plante, and
Tony Gault.  In addition, the festival has hosted numerous filmmakers including Jim
Trainor, Leighton Pierce, Deborah Stratman, Bill Brown, Jim Finn, Robert Todd, and Scott
Stark.

Entry form and guidelines available at <www.flexfest.org>.  The regular entry deadline is
October 1, but we encourage early submission.

Entry Fee:

Regular--$10 (postmark by October 1)
Late--$20 (postmark by November 1)

No entry fee for festival alumni or for international entries.
