Submissions Now Open

The deadline for first wave / earlybird submissions to this year's Sydney Science Fiction Film Festival is March 28.

Joining feature films, shorts and student works are two new categories this year - video game and advertising sector content.

Says festival director Simon Foster:

The artistry on display in the video game industry has always been at the forefront of conceptual design and that vision has energised speculative storytelling around the world. As a festival that celebrates all those elements, it would be a disservice to our patrons and those artists not to represent their work in some way.

That's true and we're also seeing increasing crossover between film, television and gaming.

The 3rd Annual Sydney Science Fiction Film Festival will run from August 25-28 in Event Cinema's George Street multiplex.

Details will be released soon regarding a national expansion of the fesitval program.
