SELECTION PROCESS
The Festival Programming Committee selects films for exhibition at the
Festival from submitted entries, and a separate jury of artists and
professionals from the film industry selects award recipients. Entries are
judged on their creative content, but also on the ability to maintain the
spirit of low-budget filmmaking.

If your film is selected for exhibition, you will be asked to ship A FILM
PRINT to the CSIF approximately one month before the Festival. The $100 Film
Festival will make every attempt to avoid any damage to your film, but
cannot provide any guarantee. At the completion of the Festival, your film
will be shipped back to you, pre-paid (with the exception of filmmakers in
Calgary whose films will be available for pick-up).

SUBMISSIONS
Send a VHS or DVD preview copy (NTSC, DVD Region 1 format) and completed
submission form to the CSIF before the deadline of 4pm – December 1, 2006.
Label the VHS or DVD clearly with the title, name of filmmaker and running
time. If you are entering more than one film, you may compile them on to one
VHS or DVD, but a separate entry form must be submitted for each film. No
entry fee is required, but the VHS or DVD will not be returned unless you
enclose a self-addressed stamped envelope.

Extracts and stills from selected films may be used to advertise the
Festival in local print, radio or television media, and on the Festival web
site. Distribution information is collected to be included in program guide
and web site.

Important note for entries from outside of Canada:
Label packages "Cultural Purposes. No Commercial Value." The CSIF will not
pay any shipping or duty charges.
