Named as one of the top 25 International Festivals, The Accolade, now in its eighth year has announced its Call for Entries for filmmakers, television producers and videographers. The Accolade is unique as it is an awards competition, not a traditional film festival. Awards go to those filmmakers, television producers and videographers who produce fresh, standout entertainment, animation and compelling documentaries. It is a showcase for cinematic gems and unique voices. In addition, The Accolade team works passionately to help worthy productions gain the publicity and distribution they deserve. That is what The Accolade is all about: helping winners of this coveted award achieve recognition and distribution opportunities. The deadline for submissions is August 27th 2010. For more information about the festival as well as guidelines for submissions please visit The Accolade website.
