MillimeterNodance Film and Multimedia Festival Announces Call for Submissions
Nov 6, 2002 12:00 PM
The innovative, independent Nodance Film and Multimedia Festival, which holds the distinction of being the world’s first DVD-projected film festival, has just announced its call for submissions for its sixth annual event to be held in Park City, Utah from January 18 to 24, 2003. For the first time ever, Forest Whitaker’s Spirit Dance Entertainment will team up with the Nodance Festival by becoming the presenting sponsor for what promises to be an unforgettable year. Early entry submissions for features, shorts, and music videos must be postmarked by November 22, with final entry submissions due December 15. Nodance celebrates the alternative digital film culture with an emphasis on emerging technologies and digital filmmaking. "Heading into our sixth year, Nodance is very excited to once again bring first-time filmmakers and the digital underground to Park City," says festival director James Boyd. "With limited budgets preventing many young filmmakers from participating in the Park City market, Nodance is more than willing to hold open the door for new talent. With new digital technologies paving the way, Nodance hopes to continue to bring more unique visions to the screen." Nodance 2002 continued to see a surge in crowds, highlighted many first-time filmmakers, and was free for the general public. In past events, Nodance has world premiered Artisan Entertainment's high-definition feature Skeletons In The Closet and hosted industry panelists such as writer/director David Veloz (Permanent Midnight), musician Art Alexakis from Everclear, and producer Gill Holland (Hurricane Streets). Located on Park City's historic Main Street, the Nodance 2003 headquarters is the epicenter of all Nodance activity and will host industry panels, networking events, and desktop technology demonstrations. Competition films, which are all screened via DVD projection, are eligible for the Grand Jury and Audience Awards, and back by popular demand is the highly coveted “Golden Orbs” Award for the most innovative guerrilla marketing campaign on the mountain. Nodance screenings are free to the public, and the program is subject to change without notice. Updates for the event can be found on the Nodance Film Festival website at
