BUSHO FILM FESTIVAL REGULATIONS 2012

BuSho (Budapest Short) was established in the autumn of 2004 by a group of young Hungarian filmmakers and the first event successfully ran its course the following year. The festival became an international breakthrough in an exceptionally short period of time. We had plenty of festival screenings, selections of film academys, conferences, exhibitions, film-, and all-art workshops in the program. Our main target group is the generation of developing young filmmakers but we are very delighted at every entry. This film celebration takes place in Budapest in the late summer of 2012.

You can enter in three categories: fiction, animation and experimental.
Duration: maximum 30 minutes!
Submitted films should have been produced after the 1^st of January 2010!
Every film enters the festival FREE OF CHARGE!
ONLINE ENTRY OPENING: 1^st December 2011.
DEADLINE: 30^th April 2012.

From this year we accept online entries only to register for pre-jurying, except those studios, schools, workshops or agencies that enter 5 or more shorts, in this case they can send them to us collected on DVD by post.
