Australia’s Top 8 Film Festivals for 2013 – A Mini Guide
(firmenpresse) - As the 2013 Australian film festival season begins to get underway, blog.movr.com has published a mini-guide to Australia’s Top 8 film festivals – handy for both Aussie filmmakers and their foreign counterparts contemplating making a trip ‘down-under’ to showcase their work and springboard their careers.
Antony Hing, writer at the popular film festival site blog.movr.com says, “It is the high proportion of international film content actively sought by many of Australia’s best film festivals to supplement domestic content that makes these festivals among the most popular choices for indie and emerging filmmakers from Australia, the USA, EU, Canada, Asia and other international filmmaker communities”.
He adds, “Australian film festival audiences continue to affirm their enthusiasm and appetite for a high level of creative and cultural diversity, if one considers the sustained levels of attendance numbers, with several events attracting in excess of 100,000 fans”.
Antony notes, “Tropfest Australia, in Sydney has a typical attendance of 150,000 and 1,000,000 TV viewers. St Kilda Film Festival in Melbourne, will attract close to 300,000 fans.
Melbourne International Film Festival, Australia’s oldest, will attract about 200,000 movie buffs.
While Sydney doesn’t yet beat these audience numbers it trumps the rest with the biggest prize pool, last year awarding prizes totalling A$84,000 across 7 films.”
Of course, what makes a festival a great event for one filmmaker is likely to be different for another, "so we decided to make it easy for filmmakers to find out which of these Film Festivals will best fit their promotional needs. Filmmakers can visit blog.movr.com and compare these eight film festivals across more than 15 major attributes and key dates – all in one spot”, said Antony, co-founder of the popular social movie site Movr.com
