Screentest

Well we’re now closed to submissions for 2008, thanks for all your great films.

We ended up with a similar number of submissions to last year, in a broad range of styles and genres. We’re hard at work reviewing the entries now and the quality this year seems to be excellent, with some extremely high quality films we’ve enjoyed very much.

We should have contacted everyone who submitted a film to confirm its receipt but if you haven’t heard please email me on [email protected] to confirm we haven’t lost it somewhere.

I’m hoping we should have finished watching the films shortly and we will be sending out details of whether your film will be shown at the weekend and whether you’ve been nominated for any awards by the end of next week, with any luck. Then in two weeks it’ll be Screentest time - we hope to see you there!

That’s right, you can now buy your weekend festival passes online!

By using PayPal to process your order electronically Screentest is now able to sell weekend tickets to the fourth National Student Film Festival right here on our website. Simply follow the link in the menu (or click here) to place your order. Tickets will be reserved for you (and any friends you buy tickets for) at the ‘Reserved Tickets’ stall at the festival, which opens at 5pm on Friday 29th February. You will need some form of identification to collect your tickets- a student card will do just fine.

Unfortunately this year Screentest are unable to offer accommodation to visiting festival-goers, but we have compiled a list of local hostels on the ticket page. Don’t forget you can give us a shout if you get stuck.

We look forward to welcoming you to Screentest 2008!
