The 2011 British Urban Film Festival - Monthly Call for submissions

Watch the promo here

Buff Enterprises starts the new year with its annual call for submissions for the 2011 British Urban Film Festival - bringing together independent filmmakers from across the nation, to submit their own films. Buff Enterprises launched in July 2005 with the aim of providing a healthy alternative to the showcasing of urban independent cinema in the UK.

Since then there has been a concerted effort by the UK film industry to address this imbalance in the cinema landscape both on and off screen. As a result of its' key pledge to screen films free of charge, Buff has played its' part in developing and attracting audiences who have shown a keen interest in being part of this movement. The annual British Urban Film Festival is the only festival of its' kind in the UK and has become a trusted source for film fans keen to tap into one of the fastest growing creative sectors in the UK.

A DVD screener, EPK, plus a non-refundable entry fee of £25 is the requirement for filmmakers and filmmaking institutions wishing to submit a short film, documentary or feature length movie. All cheques should be made payable to 'Buff Enterprises Ltd'. Please send all materials plus a cover letter to British Urban Film Festival 2011, Buff Enterprises c/o 4front Films, 27 Ithica House, Romford Road, London E15 4LJ.

The deadline is Monday July 25. More details can be found at www.buffenterprises.co.uk where you can also read the monthly edition of the BUFF blog.
