To our film producer and distributor friends:
We have just two weeks to go for receipt of entries for TAC Festival 2012. Please submit your entries in time for us to receive them by November 1.
Now that we are coming down to the wire, please don’t delay any more to submit entries for the 2012 edition of The Archaeology Channel International Film and Video Festival! This is the only international competition for this genre in the entire Western Hemisphere and a wonderful showcase for your work. Let me repeat: our deadline for receipt of entries now is November 1, 2011. That is only two weeks away!
TAC Festival 2012 takes place May 8-12, 2012, in the Recital Hall at The Shedd Institute here in Eugene, Oregon, USA. You can find our entry form and further information by going to http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/TACfestival.shtml. Please read the guidelines carefully, as we depend on you for accurate information.
In previous years, some entries regrettably were rejected because of errors in entry forms or problems with the film review copies. Others arrived too late for us to consider them. If you allow time for these problems to be resolved, you can help assure that you will not be excluded from consideration. Send your entries in this week to allow time for them to get here. Also, we encourage you to make plans to attend the Festival to represent your films and also to participate in our Conference on Cultural Heritage Film (http://www.archaeologychannel.org/content/CallforPapers2012.html), which is growing each year.
For our last Festival, we received 69 entries from 20 countries. We expect to exceed those numbers this year and to attract the world’s best films in our genre to this competition. In the nine years of TAC Festival so far, we have received entries from 45 countries. With your support and participation, we can continue to grow TAC Festival as a promotional tool for your good work.
Please share this announcement with others you know who may have films suitable for entry. Many thanks and best wishes to you all.
