Correspondência de Palm Springs July 18, 2008 THROUGH THE EAR (PELO OUVIDO) Dear Joaquim, Congratulations! We’re delighted to inform you that your film, THROUGH THE EAR (PELO OUVIDO), has been selected for presentation in the official line-up of the 14th Annual Palm Springs International Festival of Short Films (August 21-27, 2008), as well as a featured film in the Festival’s Short Film Market. We hope that you will plan to join us in Palm Springs during the Festival as a Presenting Filmmaker. Palm Springs ShortFest provides filmmakers with a wealth of opportunities: our widely acclaimed programming, along with the convergence of filmmakers and film industry professionals attending the Festival have made this event one of the most respected and business-friendly short film festivals in the world. The Festival’s Marketplace and its staff help facilitate meetings between filmmakers and press and industry guests, and our packed schedule of screenings, receptions and special events further promotes that interaction. Additionally, our proximity to the Los Angeles film industry epicenter can be beneficial to those traveling from out of state or out of the country who have scheduled meet and greets on their next projects. We hope you can join us for the Festival where, as a Presenting Filmmaker, we are delighted to provide you with one Festival Filmmaker Pass, which includes access to all regular screenings, Opening and Awards Nights Screenings and Receptions, all Seminars, Master Classes and Panel Discussions, our Hospitality Lounge, the Short Film Market, and all receptions and special events. Please check our website (www.psfilmfest.org/participate/travel) for a list of hotels offering special discounts for participating filmmakers. Once again, congratulations on being selected for the Palm Springs International Festival of Short Films. We look forward greatly to seeing you here and to showcasing your film at the event. Meanwhile we send our Best regards, Kathleen McInnis |
