JAPAN WILDLIFE FILM FESTIVAL 2009 - ENTRY DEADLINE EXTENDED TO SUNDAY 15TH MARCH
Just click here for online registration and remember, entry is free: http://www.naturechannel.jp/Eentry-call.html The ninth Japan Wildlife Film Festival takes place over four days in Toyama from August 20th to 23rd, 2009. Established in 1993, the Festival is held biennially. It started in the hope that by screening moving images of the wonders of wildlife and the co-existence of nature and people, we could help to increase understanding and awareness of the urgent need to protect and care for the natural world. The Japan Wildlife Film Festival is a four-day event, where nominated films are screened at several theatres and open to the public free of charge. The Festival gives the Japanese public an excellent opportunity to view high quality natural history films. In addition to the screenings, we invite several of the nominees and other filmmakers to give special seminars on the making of their films. With your cooperation, the festival is now in its 16th year. For the last Festival we received 334entries from 40 countries and 40,000 people, including school children, attended the public screenings staged throughout the Toyama region. International filmmakers and broadcasters and the Japanese public now know the Festival as one of the biggest of its kind in Asia. With the film competition as its focus, we also hosts seminars by scientists and filmmakers and support active international exchanges among filmmakers and broadcasters trusting they may lead to new co-productions and distribution opportunities. We very much look forward to receiving your wonderful films and welcoming you to the Festival. Nature Film Network
