1. UVOD:


Mednarodni festival študentske filmske in video produkcije FILOFEST poleg
osrednjega filmskega programa ponuja tudi spremljevalni program v obliki
predavanj, okroglih miz, diskusij, razstav, koncertov, družabnih dogodkov
in drugih prireditev.




2. TEKMOVALNA IN NETEKMOVALNA KATEGORIJA:


Tekmovalna kategorija je namenjena izkljuèno neodvisnim študentskim
filmom, katerih režiserji so brez akademske filmske izobrazbe, posnetim v
lastni produkciji, brez pomoèi profesionalnih produkcijskih hiš in
filmskih akademij. Netekmovalna kategorija je namenjena izkljuèno filmom,
katerih režiserji so študentje filmskih šol ali akademij in so nastali v
produkciji ali koprodukciji filmskih šol oz. akademij.

Festival sprejema igrane, dokumentarne, animirane in eksperimentalne
filme. Festival si pridržuje pravico prikazati tudi filme, ki ne spadajo v
nobeno od teh kategorij. Festival sprejema kratke, srednjemetražne in
celoveèerne filme; omejitve pri dolžini filma ni.




3. SELEKCIJA:


Producent oz. lastnik avtorskih pravic filma izbere kategorijo, v katero
želi prijaviti film. Èe film ne izpolnjuje pogojev za predvajanje v
izbrani kategoriji, ga lahko festival premesti v kategorijo, za katero
izpolnjuje pogoje.

Natisnjeni, pravilno in v celoti izpolnjeni ter podpisani prijavi morata
biti priloženi dve selekcijski kopiji filma v DVD PAL formatu. Na enem DVD
nosilcu je lahko posnet samo en film. Èe prijavitelj prijavi veè kot en
film, mora biti vsak film posnet na svojem nosilcu. Prijavi mora biti
priložena zgošèenka (CD), ki naj vsebuje naslednje gradivo: tekstovno
datoteko s kratko vsebino filma, tekstovno datoteko s popolno zasedbo
filma, fotografije iz filma, fotografijo režiserja, tekstovno datoteko s
kratko biografijo in filmografijo režiserja ter tekstovno datoteko z
izvirnim seznamom dialogov. Prijavitelj naj gradiva ne pošilja v papirnati
obliki; prav tako ga naj ne pošilja po elektronski pošti.

Vsi prijavljeni filmi, ki niso v angleškem jeziku, morajo biti angleško
podnaslovljeni, kar velja tudi za kopiji, ki sta poslani za selekcijo. Za
selekcijo je izjemoma in le po dogovoru s selektorjem mogoèe poslati tudi
kopiji, ki nista podnaslovljeni, vendar le s popolnim izpisom dialogov v
anglešèini. Vsebina predvajalne kopije mora biti enaka vsebini selekcijske
kopije. Selekcijska kopija je lahko hkrati tudi predvajalna kopija.

Selekcija bo zakljuèena do 15. novembra 2007. Rezultati selekcije bodo
objavljeni najkasneje en teden po zakljuèku selekcije na spletni strani
festivala www.filofest.com.




4. PRAVICE IN OBVEZNOSTI, KI IZHAJAJO IZ SELEKCIJE:


Vsakdo, ki prijavi svoj film, daje festivalu pravico do predstavitve
njegovega dela na kateremkoli nosilcu ali javnem predvajanju za namen
promocije festivala, in sicer brezplaèno. Prijavljene filme lahko festival
prikaže najveè trikrat (3x) na obmoèju Republike Slovenije in trikrat (3x)
v tujini v okviru selekcije "Best of Filofest".

Festival krije tujim avtorjem filmov v uradnem tekmovalnem programu
(najveè enemu avtorju na film) stroške bivanja za èas festivala. Na željo
avtorja festival pomaga pri iskanju primernih prenoèitvenih kapacitet v
bližini festivala. Festival ne krije potnih stroškov. Na željo avtorja
festival pomaga pri iskanju primernih pokroviteljev za kritje potnih
stroškov. Potencialni pokrovitelji so lahko tuja veleposlaništva v
Sloveniji ter kulturni centri ali inštituti ter druge primerne
organizacije.




5. PRIJAVA FILMA ZA SELEKCIJO:


Ob prijavi filma je treba v celoti izpolniti uradno prijavnico festivala
ter jo skupaj z vsemi prilogami, oznaèenimi na prijavnici, in s
selekcijskima kopijama poslati na festivalski naslov. Kopiji filma za
selekcijo morata biti v DVD PAL formatu. Film, izpolnjeno prijavnico in

jasno oznaèen naslov filma. Poštnino za pošiljanje selekcijskih kopij
krije prijavitelj filma.

Roke za prijavo filmov je treba spoštovati. Po izteku roka prijava ni veè
mogoèa. Prepoznih in nepopolnih prijav festival ne upošteva. Rok za
pravilno prijavo filma se upošteva po oddajni teoriji; za pravilno
prijavljen film se upošteva datum oddaje pošiljke in ne datum prejema
(velja datum poštnega žiga). Razpis zaène teèi s 01.09.2007 in se zakljuèi
s 15.10.2007. Pošiljke oddane pred 01.09.2007 ali po 15.10.2007 ne bodo
sprejete v selekcijo. Prijavnine ni. Kopij filmov, ki so bile poslane za
selekcijo, festival ne vraèa. Istoèasno s tem, ko odpošlje film, je
pošiljatelj dolžan festival obvestiti o pošiljki, in sicer prek
elektronske pošte. Pri tem mora navesti ime pošiljatelja, ime kontaktne
osebe, datum oddaje pošiljke, naslov filma in AWB številko, èe je to
mogoèe (za letalski promet). Morebitne dodatne informacije v zvezi s

Festival sestavi žirijo, ki šteje najmanj pet èlanov, od katerih je eden
predsednik žirije. Za èlana ali predsednika žirije ne more biti imenovan

film, znaša €500,00. Nagrado za najboljši film prejme producent filma.
Žirija si pridržuje pravico, da katere od predvidenih nagrad ne podeli.
Žirija lahko izreèe tudi posebno priznanje filmom, za katere meni, da so
izkazali doloèene kvalitete. To priznanje se imenuje "Posebna omemba
žirije" in ni materialnega znaèaja.

Festival si pridržuje pravico podeliti posebno nagrado. Festival lahko da
slovenskim in mednarodnim organizacijam pravico do podelitve svoje
nagrade. V kolikor se organizacija odloèi za podelitev lastne nagrade mora
festivalu pred uradno otvoritvijo priskrbeti izvod pravil o podeljevanju
nagrade in zagotoviti nagradni sklad.

festivalske dogodke.




10. PRAVICA SODELOVANJA:

pogoje za sodelovanje na festivalu. S prijavo filma v selekcijo
prijavitelj brez zadržkov sprejema ta pravila. V primeru dvoma ima pravno
veljavo zgolj slovenska verzija pravil. Direktor festivala ima pravico
odloèanja v vseh primerih, ki jih ta pravila ne urejajo.

1. INTRODUCTION


Along with its primary role as a film festival The International Student
Film and Video Festival FILOFEST is accompanied by additional programme in
the form of lectures, panel discussions, exhibitions, social happenings
and other events.




2. COMPETITION CATEGORIES


The competition part of the programme is open exclusively to independent
student films, whose authors must be amateurs without formal film
education. The films must be made in home production without any help from
professional production companies and/or film schools and academies. The
non-competition part of the programme is open exclusively to films
directed by students of film academies or film schools (films that have
been produced and/or co-produced by film academies or film schools).

The festival accepts fiction, documentary, animated and experimental
films. The festival reserves the right to show any film, which does not
fall into any of these four categories. The festival accepts short and
feature films; there is no length limitation.




3. SELECTION


The producer or the copyright owner of the film chooses a category in
which he or she wants the film to appear. In case the film does not meet
the criteria for the chosen category, the festival is entitled to transfer
the film to another category.

A printed out copy of the application form, which has to be correctly
filled out and signed, has to be enclosed in the package, together with
two selection copies of the film in DVD PAL format, region free. Each DVD
can contain one film only. In case the applicant sends more than one film,
each of the films has to be on a separate DVD. Along with the printed out
application form and two copies of the film on DVD, the applicant has to
enclose a CD with the following files: a text file with the short synopsis
of the film, a text file with the complete cast list, photos from the
film, photo of the director, a text file with the biography and
filmography of the director, and a text file with the original dialogue
list. Applicants should not send the obligatory enclosures on paper or via
email.

All submitted films have to be subtitled in English unless the dialogues
are in clear English. The same rule applies to the selection copies. Only
exceptionally and subject to agreement with the category selector can a
copy without subtitles be sent for selection, provided that a full
dialogue list in English is enclosed with the application form. The
content of the screening has to be the same as the content of the
selection copy. The selection copy may be used as the screening copy.
