Submit Your Machinima to the Cambridge Film Fest!

As Machinima matures, we're seeing more traditional film fests embrace the artform and include works in their programs and competitions. Reflecting this sentiment, Matt Kelland of Short Fuze/Moviestorm sends word of the Cambridge Film Festival, which is looking for additional Machinima works for their program. More of the down-low from Matt:

"We've finally got hold of almost all of the directors of machinima films we've selected for the Cambridge Film Festival, and asked them if we can show their work.

We do have some remaining slots, and we are now requesting submissions. If you have a machinima film which you would like us to consider, please email me at matt [dot] kelland [at] moviestorm [dot] co [dot] uk telling me where I can see your film and why you think we should show it. (Don't send me the film, just a URL!)

The 28th Cambridge Film Festival runs from 18-28 September 2008, and it's one of the three largest film events in the UK. The Guardian described Cambridge as “a match for the Edinburgh and London Film Festivals…” while The Times said that it “easily outclasses its metropolitan rivals”. The machinima stream will include four screenings, plus workshops and a debate."

The entry deadline is July 28th (09:00 GST), which is just a tad over a week away - so get hopping on that submission if you'd like your work considered for screening!
