———————

Are you a filmmaker with a bicycling habit? Boston’s longest-running bicycle film festival is on October 12, 2012, and we’re showing the best
short films about the world of two-wheeled fun.

The 8th Annual Boston Bike Film Festival, a benefit for MassBike and Bikes Not Bombs, will be at bicycle-friendly Regent Theatre (new location!) in Arlington. Submissions have already been streaming in, including a short film about a man who lived on his bike, and a brief history of women’s cycling innovator Georgena Terry. In addition to the films, the evening will also feature a vibrant silent auction. Cyclist-favorite Redbones will provide snacks, and beer and wine will be available for purchase.

Films at the Boston Bike Film Festival include animated shorts, narrative stories, and feature length documentaries. Add your film to the contenders – submissions are due September 1, 2012, with an “early bird” deadline of August 1st.

Submit a film, tell your friends, save the date – you’ll want to be a part of this always-growing Festival. Information and details for submissions can be found at www.bostonbikefilmfest.org. Questions can be sent to Cat Bryant at [email protected]

Boston Bicycle Film Fest Call For Entries

Written by Boston Biker on Jun 09

Got this in the email, not to be confused with the bicycle film fest, the Boston bicycle film fest is a great local film fest just for us Bostonian’s.

—————–

Organizers of the Fifth Annual Boston Bike Film Festival have asked filmmakers with a cycling habit to submit their work to be shown October 22-23, 2010, at the historic Brattle Theater in Cambridge. All film submissions are due September 18, 2010. The event is a fundraiser for local cycling advocacy groups, including MassBike and Bikes Not Bombs. Film concepts from last year’s festival ranged from an intrepid group of cyclists riding the Iditarod in Alaska, to the first group of mountain bikers to a rapper with a message. Among the benefits for acclaimed and amateur filmmakers, the Festival offers a chance to get their films in front of audiences who are intrigued and influential to the quality of cycling nationwide. Festival information and details for submissions can be found at www.bostonbikefilmfest.org
