Filmmakers Registration Guide
Artomatic is a multi-disciplinary arts extravaganza with films scheduled daily during the month-long show.
Films range from documentary, drama, and comedy to experimental productions and more.
Artomatic is not juried. Participation is based on a first-come, first-served basis and no one needs to view your film in advance. It’s open to all artists 18 and older.
If you wish to show a film Artomatic, make sure to read the instructions below.
Getting Started
Before you begin your Artomatic registration, please take a moment to read these guidelines so you understand how the process works and make sure you complete all of the necessary steps. In an effort to ease the registration process, we have tried to separate the steps into On-Line Registration and Booking.
Many of the steps must be completed on-line. Every performing artist must book their film or video to complete registration.
You must complete both Parts I & II of the registration process in order to participate in Artomatic.
