General Guidelines
UNDEREXPOSED is dedicated to shedding light on emerging filmmakers across Australia, and incorporating film arts into Australia's biggest arts festival.
Film screenings will be taking place in public spaces, therefore event organisers can not guarantee audio capabilities in all venues at all times. As such, UNDEREXPOSED is focused on visually striking works.
Films with adult themes and graphic content are welcome to event, however due to the public accessibility of some venues, films with this content will not be able to screen in all venues.
All films entered into UNDEREXPOSED must meet the following criteria:
– One or more of the leading filmmakers must be an Australian resident.
– They must be under 16 minutes long (including credits)
– All dialogue must be subtitled in English.
– They must be High Definition. (1920 x 1080p minimum)
– You must own the rights (or be in the process of negotiating the rights) to any music used in the film.
– You must own the rights (or be in the process of negotiating the rights) to any images, talent and artists featured in the film.
– Films must be original content, and the creation of the submitting filmmakers.
– If filmmakers are under the age of 18 years old, a guardian must oversee their film submission.
