- SHORT FILMS ARE EVERYWHERE NOW!
In metros, airports, shopping centres, trains…
ART BY CHANCE is the brand new “Ultra Short Film Festival” that will be aired in May 2009 all around the world. Films will meet with us un expectedly in 5 countries; US, Canada, Turkey, Netherlands, Germany and 15 cities. New ones adding to the list everyday.
Besides its global dimension, ART BY CHANCE is also unique because the selected short movies will be presented to the public through the advertising screens instead of movie theatres. ART BY CHANCE will present urban dwellers with stimulating content thus colouring the time slices that are usually considered dead.
- UNIQUE SHORT FILM FORM AS WELL AS THE SCREENING
Enthusiastic and creative international film makers will be preparing 30 seconds long, films*, on “journey” them. ART BY CHANCE opens to movies of all kinds; fiction, animation, documentary and video art with the exception of training and advertising films.
- WHEN ADVERTISING SCREENS REPLACE THEATRES
ART BY CHANCE is currently partnering with many digital advertising network operators throughout the world. With these partnerships ART BY CHANCE will realize a revolutionary event allowing art to meet millions of people around the world. The best festival entries will be selected by a jury and will be screened on digital advertising screens located inside metros, busses, railways, public transportation terminals, shopping malls and airports.
- LARGEST AUDIENCE EVER REACHED BY A SHORT FILM FESTIVAL
ART BY CHANCE is going to allow film makers to share their work with a large audience. Viewers around the world will have the opportunity to watch the best festival movies free of charge and within the course of their daily routine. This is the largest audience ever reached by a short film festival. Reaching so many people can only be possible by taking the screenings outside the theatres where the urban people can see it without an effort.
*The sound using in films is optional. The participants must aware all the screens may not have sound access.
The Festival's Theme: Journey, "More about the journey than the destination."
