Submission deadline is August 15, 2009.UMove celebrates the creativity and diversity of kinetic cinema in all its forms, from dance/film to gaming, from animation to mash-ups - created for sharing on the web, on mobile devices and on ipods.To date, the web format for dance and kinetic-based film has been under-recognized and under-valued by dance film presenters and curators. It's time to give these videos a platform to receive both feedback and critical praise. UMove seeks work that is strong in concept and execution, rather than sporting fancy production values or large budgets. Film-makers are free to use a variety of high and low tech media to create their work.SUBMISSION DEADLINE: August 15, 2009If your submission is chosen you will be required to submit digital stills and a finished copy of your video on DVD (NTSC only) for screening and publicity purposes by September 15, 2009.
