CALLING all film-makers and surfers, entries are now open for the inaugural Noosa Surf Film Festival that will be held at The J in October.
The festival is a celebration of surf culture, creativity and lifestyle, and where better to celebrate than in the heart of Noosa.
The festival will include an art show, opening party, two nights of epic surf movie screenings made up of a selection of films, with each screening followed by a question-and-answer session with the film-makers and talent, plus a closing party to celebrate the festival.
Event organisers are calling on all film-makers from amateur to professional, local to international, to submit their short film, music video, documentary, or feature-length films to be selected for programs throughout the festival.
“We have already received an amazing selection of films from all over the globe including France, Brazil, USA, England, Italy and many parts of Australia,” the event organisers said.
Entry is free and is open to everyone until 15 August. Entries can be submitted via www.noosasurffilmfestival.com.au/submit
The Noosa Surf Film Festival will be held at The J, on Friday 23 October and Saturday 24 October, with the full program of events to be announced on 30 August.
