We have over 500 submissions for our Different Angle Film Competition and Dutch Music Video Competition. A selection of these submissions will enter the official competition. That will be announced on this website on the 1st of August 2010.
Different Angle Film Competition
The aim of this film competition is to encourage independent filmmakers to present their vision of a current theme in an interesting, creative way from a different angle than we are used to. The 10 best films will be nominated and screened during the festival. A professional jury will choose the winner of the Different Angle Film Award and announce it during the festival from 8-17 October 2010.
In 2009 the Different Angle Film Competition was won by:
Left Behind from directors Andreas Gräfenstein & Fabian Daub, Germany.
Dutch Music Video Competition
The first Dutch competition all about the music video! The submitted music videos will be judged by a jury on originality in concept, creativity in the productionchoice and balance in music and image. The jury consists of prominent people from the music and film business. In 2009 that were Bart Rutten (curator Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam), Jonas Akerlund (multi-award winning director) and Marco Grandia (music video director for Dutch artists such as Kane and Di-rect). The competition is divided in a national and international selection. The awards will be given during the festival from 8-17 October 2010.
