Returning for the third year, EMBASSY is open for submissions of artists moving image and video work, up to 20 minutes.
This open call is for artists moving image work, (or work in any video format) up to 20 minutes, which has not previously been screened in a physical space. Submissions are open to works which have only been shown online previously. Applicants can be based anywhere! Artists will be paid a screening fee of £80.
While “success” most often coincides with visibility and exposure, “failure”, in the broad sense of the word, is harder to tally, externally as well as internally. By screening work that has previously not found a place to be exhibited, EMBASSY wishes to explore the more hidden areas of artists’ practises.
Examples of what to submit could be films, video art, performance documentations, animations, video essays, sound/music pieces over images, or works in progress of any of the above.
The screenings will be held at EMBASSY Gallery in Edinburgh over the 6th, 7th and 8th of December 2024. The works will also be shown online over the film festival’s dates. All works will be Captioned by EMBASSY, before their public present.
