DESCRIPTION:
A CELEBRATION FUNDRAISER FOR CANINE ADVOCACY:
THE DOG FILM FESTIVAL
The Dog Film Festival, a journey that begins in New York City and then travels the country, is an annual fundraising celebration. It showcases a diverse range of short films, from animated shorts to documentaries and narratives, all featuring dogs and the human-canine bond. The festival's fundraising mission is to raise awareness about animal welfare, celebrating the joys and challenges of pet ownership while advocating for rescue and adoption.
The festival, founded by Tracie Hotchner, a pet wellness advocate, is a unifying force for dog lovers. It brings them together through the medium of film, all while benefiting local animal welfare organizations. The event typically takes place in the fall, often in October or November, with screenings at various theaters across the city.
People participate by attending screenings, where a portion of ticket sales goes to local animal shelters. Some screenings are accompanied by panel discussions, Q&A sessions with filmmakers, and opportunities for attendees to adopt dogs featured in the films.
Dr. Elsey champions the festival. Dog owners often bring their pets along to share in the experience. It's a unique opportunity for pet lovers to engage with like-minded individuals and support important causes through film.
SUBMITTING A SHORT FILM
Filmmakers interested in submitting films to the Dog Film Festival can do so through the official festival website or film submission platforms like FilmFreeway, which are commonly used for film festivals. The submissions are generally open to various formats, including short films, documentaries, and animations, as long as they focus on dogs and the relationship between dogs and humans.
For the most up-to-date information, filmmakers should check the official Dog Film Festival website for details and deadlines, which may vary yearly.
