Rehoboth Beach Film Society Seeks Art Submissions for 2018 Film Festival

Art Talbot

The Rehoboth Beach Film Society is seeking original art submissions to be adapted for the 2018 Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival’s artwork. The selected submission will become the theme for designing the Film Festival’s poster, program, t-shirt, and other promotional materials. Submissions must be new, original, and created with film and coastal Delaware in mind.

The selected artist will receive tremendous visibility by having his/her work featured in numerous marketing applications. Several thousand Festival programs will be printed with the chosen artwork on the cover and an interior page devoted to a biography and photo of the selected artist. In addition, numerous copies of the Festival poster, featuring the artwork, will be displayed in businesses throughout Sussex County. The artwork will also be posted on the Film Society’s website with a link to the selected artist’s website. In addition, the artwork will be featured on the merchandise sold during and after the Film Festival.

The selected original artwork will be auctioned at the Festival in November 2018 with proceeds to benefit the Rehoboth Beach Film Society.

Artwork was selected for previous Festivals from artists such as Steve Drum, Claudia Ratner, Damon Pla, Laura Ambler, Nina Stamus, Batenga Obuseh, Faith Lord and Dana Deininger.

Artists interested in making a submission, can visit the Film Society Website for criteria at www.rehobothfilm.com, or call the Film Society office, (302) 645-9095. Each year the Film Society tries to select a novel artistic concept for the Rehoboth Beach Independent Film Festival. Interested artists should visit the Poster Archives page of the RBFS website to review designs of previous years so each submission can represent a fresh face. The deadline for submissions is 4:45 pm on March 31, 2018.
