Mekong Cultural Hub

Answer: 

☑ Any film that includes dance elements which include documentary 

Some of the work can be classified as performance rather than dance, we have a “Special Selection” category to show the works.

Answer: 

Audiences who come to Cityline are interested in culture and entertainment in general. Cityline would like to introduce the genre of dance film and different dance cultures of Asia to the general public, instead of aiming for high artistic work. 

We want to be inclusive and present diversity of the dance culture in Asia. Basically the only restriction is the film is suitable to be shown to the general public and not against the law of Hong Kong.

Answer: 

No strict requirement.

We charge different prices according to the length of the film (under 60 min/ above 60 mins) so we encourage longer films.

Answer: 

There’s no limit.

Answer: 

We are only concerned with the visual quality of the film (for example, not visually blurred or  low-resolution, not noise …), which must be good enough to be shown on the platform.  We do not judge the artistic quality of the works to be submitted.

We think that strong culture elements are easier to attract audiences, and provide good material for critics and cultural journalists to write about. We are open to any styles.

Answer: 

Ticket revenue raised from the sales of single tickets excluding total handling fees will be shared between Presenter and Cityline in the ratio 5:5. In addition, the net profit of Dance Film Festival Pass and Eyes on Asia Pass (deducting the 50% share of Cityline) will be evenly distributed among all related participating creators/artists/presenters.

No extra fee for the artist to participate in the film festival.

Answer: 

Currently, there is no funding available for production.  We will explore the possibilities for related projects in the future if the upcoming Dance Film Festival can be proven to be a successful one to Cityline’s owner.

Answer: 

To participate in the film festival, please provide the following:

1. File(s) of the video(s) and description(s) for Cityline’s review (no later than February 3, 2023) 
2. Upon confirmation of collaboration (2-3 working days after submitting (1)):
   1. trailer(s)
   2. still(s)

If possible, please provide information in English and Chinese. 

Otherwise, information in English is acceptable. Cityline will support editing the texts in consideration of how to communicate to the potential audience more effectively.  Subtitling of videos will be as it is and Cityline will not be responsible for such.
