Q. I am an artist/photographer/designer and would like to show my work at this festival or a future one. How may I participate?
A. Any artist or group (professional or amateur) may apply to have there work screened at the festival or apply to create a new building projection. However there is some criteria which needs to be met. In general, this will not be your first work and in the case of building projections you must have created one and presented to an audience before. We strongly suggest that you register your interest with us now. Click to read more information.
Q. Is the festival presenting only building projections or will there also be space for artists to present 'traditional' multivisions?
A. At present we are hope to present at least one session of traditional multivision screenings. This will depend upon our final sponsorship/partner funding. We will make an announcement on this website and to anyone who has registered. Anyone may apply to have their work screened. However there is some criteria which needs to be met. In general, this will not be your first work and you must have presented to an audience before. It will not be longer than 10 minutes. We strongly suggest that you register your interest with us now then send us a link to your work online.
Q. When is the application deadline for artists to participate in the festival?
A. For new works - at present we do not have deadline date set, for now we are suggesting 'as soon as possible'. Eventually we will set a deadline and that is likely to be before November in order for us to make a selection and create a program whilst giving the artists time for production. However at present the final decision on which buildings will be used has not been confirmed, so until then it would be unfair to set a deadline since the buildings themselves should provide part of the inspiration for the work. Meanwhile you could register with us to receive news and updates as and when they become available by using the contact form at the bottom of this page.
Q. When is the submission deadline for artists work?
A. If you have been selected to participate to create new work/s - Preliminary sample required before 31/12/2014 Final submission in March 2015 - An exact date will be fixed later in 2014
For existing 'traditional' multivision works - sooner the better, you may send send these with your first application - from now until 31/10/2014

Q. If my application to be a participating artist is accepted, what can I expect in terms of financial help?
A. The festival organisers are unable to fund individual projects. There is no budget to pay all artists on a commission basis. However, as a minimum, we are able to assist with accommodation at the festival itself and transfers from/to airports or train stations (within a reasonable distance) in which case the accommodation must be arranged and booked by us. In some cases there may be a possibility of contributing towards travel costs but this will depend entirely upon budget availability at the time the festival closes. There will also usually be at least one festival dinner/party for all participating artists and staff. We therefore suggest that you may be able to source art funding or sponsorship locally to you, especially if you are living and working outside of Italy.
All projection, audio and related equipment will be paid for and provided on site by Luce Dipinta, during the festival and for test/rehearsals. We suggest that if your show runs directly from computer software that you bring this computer with you.
Q. If my application to be a participating artist is accepted, can I use specialized audio and presentation equipment?
A. If your proposal fits within the remit of the festival (reviewed on an individual basis) then you may include extra audio and visual hardware and/or software in your production, however you must provide a detailed technical list along with your application. Will will then let you know which items we can provide for you, you will have the responsibility of supplying and setting up of any equipment which you provide. We cannot accept any liability for any equipment not provided by us.
In general, all projection, audio and related equipment will be paid for and provided on site by Luce Dipinta, during the festival and for test/rehearsals. We suggest that if your show runs directly from specialised computer software, you bring the computer with you, we will not install other software on our media servers/computers.
Q. What projection equipment will the festival be using?
A. The projection equipment will depend upon the final choice of buildings being used, we will ensure that the projectors have sufficient brightness for the buildings involved (minimum 15,000 ansi lumen), we shall be using PC media servers installed with our preferred s/w Dataton Watchout (or Stumpfl Wings).
Q. Is it possible to produce work for the festival in surround sound?
A. Surround sound is not supported yet. This would only be possible if you provide the extra hardware/software and set it up on-site. The festival provides a high quality standard stereo audio system, set up including a mixing desk. If you require microphones and/or extra cables for any live element then we should be able to provide this on the condition that we have notice of this in your submission document. If there is anything we are unable to provide then we shall inform you in order that you make your own provision.
