2007 Finalists...

See our 2007 Finalists page for details of all of this year's finalists. Congratulations to the shortlisted films and our winners (see the results currently on the News Page) thank you to everyone who helped make this year another record for number and quality of entries from around Australia and the World.

For those who missed the call this time around, entries in 2008 are open to films of any genre up to 30 minutes in length, with the terms and conditions of entry set out below. The winner of the SNOWYfest Open Category takes home A$2,000 cash. In 2008, as for 2007, entrants can simultaneously enter SNOWYfest and our sister festival Home Brewed, which has over A$10,000 in cash prizes available. Joint entries are available for a combined and discounted entry fee - more opportunites to win and many more opportunities to be selected for a screening!

Entry fees will be around A$33 for regular entries or A$45 for entry into both SNOWYfest and Home Brewed. Additional fees are payable for late entries and discounted fees available for earlybird entries. All amounts and relevant dates will be set out on the entry form or through Withoutabox. Entries will close at the end of March 2008.

All entries must be accompanied by a completed entry form and appropriate entry fee (or alternatively be submitted through Withoutabox). Films screened at SNOWYfest in previous years are not eligible for entry.

Entry requirements - Australian Capital Region

Entries into this category must meet all the criteria and conditions for the Open Category. In addition, the film must have, at the time of the film's production and/or filming, some direct connection with the Australian Capital Region.

A map of this region, as defined by the Region's Development Council is set out to the left. The category and the prizemoney offered is intended to encourage the development of local filmmakers and the screening of their work to local audiences.
