Opportunity
Take part in the 3rd Annual Rappahannock Independent Film Festival by submitting a film or attending the public screenings.
Information
Located in historic Fredericksburg, Virginia, the Rappahannock Independent Film Festival (RIFF) is an annual event dedicated to promoting excellence in independent filmmaking.
The Rappahannock Independent Film Festival is dedicated to being a socially conscious event. We work to implement practices that reflect the ethics of the organizers and participants. Here are a just a few of the things we are doing to lower our ecological footprint:
- Using a “green” web host which subsidizes clean energy such as solar and wind power.
- Handle most of our correspondence and advertising online to reduce shipping costs and paper waste.
- All of our events take place within walking distances to reduce the need for excess travel.
- When possible, we use local and organic foods at our events.
- Encourage the use of re-usable water bottles and recycling at our events.
Films will be judged on the following categories - Direction, Technical, Screenplay, Acting, Editing, Ingenuity, Relevance, Theme, Sound, and Art Direction.
One film will be awarded in each of the following categories - Best of Show, Audience Choice (must be present to win), Best Student Film, Best Short Film, and Best Documentary
Festival will be held between August 26, 2010 and August 29, 2010 in Fredericksburg, VA.
