Hosting TFSA
2004
The TFSA package comes with the
15 films in professional-quality Mini-DV tapes
(or VHS cassettes), TFSA posters, festival catalogues
and display material. It is recommended that the
TFSA be shown through high-quality video projection
systems. The 15 films vary significantly in length
and may ideally be screened over three consecutive
afternoons-evenings, though a more flexible schedule
may certainly be considered. Cumulatively, the
15 documentaries constitute approximately 13 hours
of viewing time.
Please note that the festival will only travel
to cities where host organisations are willing
to take full responsibility for publicity, screenings
and all associated logistics. As per FSA's agreement
with the individual filmmakers and production
houses, the screenings may only be non-commercial.
This means that entry fees at TFSA may at best
be used to offset screening costs, and nothing
more.
The organisers are also asked to display a poster
of Himal South Asian magazine, which supported
FSA ’03 at a prominent spot and make available
the magazine subscription slips provided.
Costs
There is no charge levied on hosts and venues
within South Asia. Beyond the region, an all-inclusive
charge of USD 700 per venue is levied by the FSA
Secretariat in order to defray all TFSA-related
costs (anything left over will go to the organisation
of FSA’05, to be held in September 2005).
The local host (whether in South Asia or overseas)
takes the responsibility of dispatching the set
of films to the next venue as directed by the
FSA Secretariat.
Budget allowing, the TFSA host may want to invite
the individual filmmakers to their venue. While
it is not obligatory, the host may also consider
inviting an FSA official from Kathmandu, who will
be able to introduce the festival before the local
audience and in doing so promote the agenda of
non-fiction film in South Asia. Any host seeking
the presence of an FSA official will have to pick
up the related cost of travel and stay.
