Global Voices Film Festival - VR Showcase "LIVED STORIES" Entry Form

SEE EVENT DETAILS
at San Francisco (see times)
Global Voices Film Festival, presented by USNC for UN Women San Francisco, spotlights the unique voices, stories, and experiences of women and girls from across the world. The festival, now in its second year, supports female producers, directors, and writers, creating some of the most insightful and groundbreaking work in cinema.
This year, Global Voices Film Festival is proud to host our very first VR showcase, “Lived Stories.”  We invite all virtual reality film directors, producers, and technologists to submit inventive, independently produced works of fiction or documentary that highlight female narratives. We hope this new platform provides an avenue for all storytellers to exhibit full, immersive stories, and really show what this cutting edge medium is capable of.
Projects must be viewable via one of our accepted VR platforms (Samsung Gear VR, Google Cardboard, HTC Vive, and Oculus Rift) We request you provide a link to a 360° video file (.mp4), app download package (.apk), steam key, Oculus download link, or other PC installation package. We also accept Dropbox links.
Attach your Eventbrite receipt to all submissions and send to [email protected]
We welcome all films that focus on women’s stories or experiences and accept all domestic and international film submissions that meet the above criteria.
Global Voices Film Festival is a fundraiser sponsored by the US National Committee (USNC) for UN Women, San Francisco Bay Area Chapter. The goal of the festival is to raise money and awareness for the work of UN Women, the UN body tasked with advancing gender equality and women’s development worldwide. UN Women programs positively impact the economic, social, and political well-being of women in developing countries, while increasing awareness to women’s rights issues internationally. Strictly a volunteer-staffed event, our festival will donate its net proceeds to the USNC for advocacy programs and to support the work of UN Women worldwide.
