Really Long Link
From Richard Wolstencroft at MUFF:
"We call all able-bodied filmmakers of any taste, sexual persuasion, style,budget or political bent to help us man and woman the ramparts in theurgent culture wars of the Australian Film Industry. The mission? To save the Australian film industry from itself. After a poor year of Oz cinema (yet again! Happy Feet aside) in the mainstream (Romulus, Noise, Clubland, Home Song Stories snore, snore, snore) the MUFF mandate to find,identify, promote and lauder new voices in Australian cinema is more relevant than ever."
MUFF now have their own distribution label set up in conjunction with Accent
Film Entertainment called Accent Underground ... so maybe getting your
films into MUFF might also lead to it coming out on DVD in the near
future.
See www.accentfilm.com/press.cfm
The team at MUFF are also adding a vast array of new shorts awards to MUFF 9. There will
be two closing nights in 2008. The first will be a Best of MUFF 9 shorts
and awards ceremony for the short filmmakers then the features closing
night with the awards for the features. There will be ten or twelve short
film categories (including four awards for International shorts!) and alsoMUFF will
be organizing prize packs including Free Equipment hire, Accent Underground
DVD's, book vouchers, posters, CD's and other prizes all to be announced
before MUFF 9 this year.
They are also looking to present a BEST of MUFF shorts through Accent Underground in the future post MUFF 9 so get those shorts in to be considered!
Even if your film played at MIFF or SIFF or elsewhere in Oz we still want it at MUFF. Our criterion for selection is based on one issue only: Cinematic Passion. So if your films have it, send it in to MUFF and play the underground as well as the mainstream scene. MUFF has the credibility other film festivals in this country lack, so be part of the cinematic rebellion in 2008.
Entries Close: Monday August 11, 2008. Get them in early if you can as
they are considered more thoroughly if you do.
The directors have many other grand plans and improvements for MUFF 9 so stand by
for details and remember MUFF accepts and plays the most exciting and daring cinema Australia and the world has to offer all packaged up in our usual risqu culture bomb of mischief and mayhem.
