Dear members of the short film industry, in order to better accompany filmmakers, producers, and distributors of short films on their way to the Oscars, Unifrance has set up new types of support.
As of now, if you have one or more short films eligible for the Oscars, Unifrance is delighted to provide you with an exclusive document covering the history, issues, procedures, and workings of the Academy. We commissioned this document, a veritable bible for getting started in the famous “Oscar race,” from Benoît Berthe Siward, whose company The Animation Showcase accompanies producers and their animated shorts through the process every year. A non-downloadable link can be sent to you as of now, on request to the following contact: courtmetrage@unifrance.org
In September, for short films shortlisted at the Oscars, Unifrance will organize a meeting with Benoit Berthe Siward to answer your questions, fine-tune your approach, and benefit from his experience. This meeting will be completed by a presentation of Unifrance's support methods at key stages of the campaign, from shortlist to nomination.
For more information, you can contact Unifrance's short film service.
