Submit
The Lone Star Film Festival is now accepting submissions for 2012. Submissions will be open until September but filmmakers can take advantage of reduced submissions fees the sooner submissions are made.
Along with current shifts in the film industry, new models of distribution and exhibition are emerging. This evolution is paving the way for pioneering companies, individuals, and information that will form the future landscape of media.
Knowledge and appreciation of this new frontier can best be gained in live forums where information, ideas, and strategies can be shared in real time as they evolve – such as film festivals positioned at the intersection of new paradigms and established traditions.
In 2012 the Lone Star Film Festival Fort Worth in Sundance Square will implement just such a focus through film competition and strategies that inform and support projects, filmmakers, film professionals and audiences in the rapidly transforming world of independent film distribution.
In the coming months, program details, partners, and participants will be announced. Submissions will be open until late August but filmmakers can take advantage of reduced submissions fees the sooner submissions are made.
