Given the fact that there are so many different techniques and visions how the films should be made, Video Art Association Videomedeja has decided to invite several filmschools from all over the World and combine them in one interesting competition – LUNARTIS.
The main reason for this is to get these different theories together on one place and introduce them to young future filmmakers from different continents and cultures to get acquainted with this diversity of film making.
LUNARTIS is NOT just another student film competition with hundreds of movies and only schools invited by Videomedeja may participate in LUNARTIS. Main rule is ONE SCHOOL – ONE FILM. We are looking only for the Best students filmmakers representing the Best Film Schools from each continent. Each participating school will select only one graduate or undergraduate thesis film to represent them and these films are automatically accepted.

AFDA (The South African School of Motion Picture Medium and Live Performance), South Africa
