DIGIMOVIES Rolling submissions accepted
Presenting a new forum for the distribution and presentation of digital movies, Exit Art is seeking submissions of “digimovies” (digitally-produced movies in video format) in any genre – such as feature-length movies, shorts, documentaries, fiction, non-fiction, animated, etc. – for screening in Exit Underground, a new multi-media event space below Exit Art’s main gallery.

Exit Art recognizes the need for a forum to screen independently-produced digital movies. Planned to officially launch in Spring 2010, Exit Underground’s digital theater will contain a 5000 lumens HD projector as well as state-of-the-art audio and cinema equipment. As an ongoing site for bi-weekly screenings, directors’ discussions and premieres, we intend to create a new destination for digital cinema in Manhattan and to provide a public venue for digital moviemakers to screen their works and interact with their audiences.

Digimovies are movies produced in digital format.

To apply, please submit:

1. One full-length copy of the video on an NTSC DVD
2. One 3-5 minute ‘trailer’ for the video, or a 3-5 minute excerpt on an NTSC DVD*
3. A one-page document describing the submitted video and listing past work and past screenings. The heading of this document should also contain your name, address, email address, title of the video, and the ‘type’ of work submitted (i.e., “SHORT”, “DOCUMENTARY”, etc.)

*The full video and trailer may be on the same DVD, as long as the DVD is properly menued.

You may submit up to 5 (five) videos at once.

Please include a SASE if your work is not selected and you would like your DVD(s) returned. Submissions will be reviewed on a rolling basis; we will notify you when we view your work and make a selection decision. Selected works will be included in Exit Underground’s cinema library, a permanent archive of “digimovies” accessible for viewing to the public by appointment only. All digital video screenings, festivals and other events will be culled from this library. The advisory committee for the Exit Underground digital theater includes Larry Kardish, Senior Curator for Film and Media at the Museum of Modern Art; Adam Richman, Producer with Double Nickel Entertainment; and Producer and Curator Kathy Brew.

Submissions should be mailed to:EXIT ARTc/o Digimovies 475 Tenth Avenue New York, NY 10018
