MILAN MACHINIMA FESTIVAL

The MILAN MACHINIMA FESTIVAL is an annual event showcasing audiovisual non-interactive works produced with video games otherwise known as machinima. Filmmakers and video artists engaged in the practice of appropriating, repurposing, and remixing video games are encouraged to send us their work for consideration. All submissions will be judged by an international panel of jurors comprising scholars, curators, and critics. A Critics' Award will be awarded to the most groundbreaking work. Screenings of selected machinima will be curated around different themes and presented in different sections. The most interesting submissions are those which seek to capture or highlight a specific facet of contemporary life, from politics to art, from violence to creativity, from technology to ideology, through the aesthetic lenses of digital gaming. The deadline for submissions is December 15, 2021 The full program will be announced March 7 2022 Please carefully read our simple submission guidelines and requirements below before sending your work.
