As a PDF document: english german
Deadline is 15th April.
1. Conditions for submitting your film
There is NO fee for submission
To submit you must (I) be a current student or (II) have graduated less than twelve months before the deadline.
Work you submit must have been made within the last 12 months.
The viewing copy of your work(s) must be VHS (PAL) or miniDV(PAL). If
you send a VHS(PAL) tape and your film is chosen, you will then need to
send us a copy on miniDV(PAL). Therefore you might want to save money
and time by sending a miniDV(PAL) in the first place.
Please note that due to problems in the past, we don't accept DVDs. It
would be a shame to miss out on your film due to technical problems!
After sending this form, you will receive an email stating a number for each film you submit. Please clearly label your tape with this/these number(s).
Please do not send several tapes - compile your films onto a single tape for submission and label the tape with the appropriate number(s).
Maximum three pieces per submission. Maximum length of each film is 10min (Main Competition) or 20min (East-West Special Competition).
If the film is not originally in English then it must have English subtitles and an English translation of the title.
EAS cannot return any material submitted. EAS will not take any responsibility for any loss or damage to entries. DO NOT SUBMIT YOUR ONLY COPY!
Packages sent from abroad must carry the specific declaration: "For cultural use only - no commercial value"
You will be informed if you have been successful or otherwise, within two months after the submission deadline.
If you have not received a response two months after the deadline please email EAS; there may be a problem with your email address.
2. Our commitment
EAS will credit your work whenever it is shown.
You will be informed in advance of every screening by us of your film.
You retain full rights to your work and are free to show it in any manner.
If EAS is approached by a third party (e.g. production company, TV station) who is interested in using your film commercially, EAS will discuss this with you and make an extra contract if appropriate.

If I am not the copyright owner I have permission from the owner to submit this film.

I will not withdraw the film from EAS after I have been notified of its selection.
I hold EAS harmless from damage of my submission.
I agree that, if selected, EAS will hold non-exclusive
