*excerpt from competition page:

The Dixie Film Festival films will be selected by the festival programmers. All film selections will be posted on our website before the festival dates.

If a film is accepted, entrants will be solely responsible for delivering their exhibition print/video materials to and from the festival venue. Complete press kits will be needed as soon after notification as possible. Dixie Fest can not be held liable for your exhibition print/video materials which are lost or damaged.

*If your film wins either category, you are required to mention that fact in posters and other promotional material if and when the film gets distribution.

Seeing this is a (one day) festival we expect a large turnout.  Upon acceptance of your film, you may have the opportunity to sell your video materials at the screening, however this solely rests upon the decision of festival programmers after they've spoken with you.

Please note festival dates are subject to change.

Unfortunately Dixie Fest does not provide room, board or travel for filmmakers, but we will treat you like family.

Remember the FINAL deadline is Monday, August 16th, 2010
