Village Screen competition at Glastonbury Festivalbudding filmmakers get chance to showcase their filmsThursday 21st May 2009 Glastonbury Festival is offering new filmmakers, VJs, digital artists, and motion-graphics artists from around the South West region the chance for their work to be screened at this year's Festival on the Village Screen.

Located beside the Meeting Point in the new William's Green Area near the Queen's Head, the 25m2 screens (there will be two of them, back-to-back) will broadcast a mix of short films, archive footage, gaming sessions, classic pop, highlights of the BBC's coverage of the Festival, and performances from the Queen's Head, from 10.00am until 3.00am each day.

South West Screen is inviting: short films and animations up to eight minutes long; documentaries (themes might include sport, sustainability, music, evolution, the natural world and landscape); digital artworks and installations; and archive footage. For submission guidelines, and more information visit the South West Screen website. The screens will also be used to launch an open call to young and emerging filmmakers and artists to submit short films and projects for the 2010 Village Screen and potential distribution to the UK network of Live Sites (big screens in city centres).
