Previews

Costs and participation

In some cases the Festival is able to provide accommodation in Novi Sad for participants who wish to attend if they send request at least one month before start of the Festival.

The 27th International New Media Art Festival Videomedeja is planning to present the regular edition of the Festival, live in front of the audience in the screening room in Novi Sad, Serbia, but…

Due to the epidemiological situation caused by the COVID-19 virus or any emergency situation that may endanger human lives or prohibit gatherings and cultural events, for security reasons, there is a small possibility that this year the Videomedeja festival will be realized via the Internet – online LIVE stream in real time. There will be no replays, nor will there be the possibility of delayed viewing. Access will be free, and registration will not be necessary, nor will there be geolocation restrictions. Your work will receive maximum protection against abuse (from downloading or similar) and immediately after the Festival program is over will no longer be available to the public. By registering for Festival 2023, you give permission for your work to be shown online via the LIVE video stream if necessary.

You agree that your work can be used according to your permit as submitted in the Entry form.

Agreement

Please use one application per entry piece. Each entry is a sort of agreement and it is necessary to follow the submission procedure.
