| OFFICIAL ENTRY FORM | FESTIVAL ENTRY REGULATIONS |

Dance Films Association (DFA) is proud to announce its third collaboration with the Film Society of Lincoln Center. Dance on Camera Festival 2000 and DFA's 28th Annual Festival. Preference will be given to experimental, documentary, and narrative entries. Due to last year's sold out festival, the time allotted to the festival has been doubled. The festival will be held 2 weeks in January, 2000, at the Walter Reade Theater, 165 West 65th Street, plaza level, New York City. Entries will be available for viewing in the Frieda and Roy Furman Gallery adjoining the theater, on request.

Dance on Camera Festival 2000 promises to be particularly exciting with workshops, panels, and a subsequent tour. Dance on Camera Festival is the oldest annual dance film/video festival in the world. Initiated to foster creativity and encourage fruitful collaborations between dancers and filmmakers, the Dance on Camera Festival is one of many activities sponsored by DFA, founded by the late Susan Braun in 1956 as a not-for-profit, member-supported service organization. Membership includes subscription to the bi-monthly Dance on Camera Journal, 20 percent discount for the 1998 publication, Dance on Camera: a Guide to Dance Films and Videos, as well as production support, access to database, and viewing facilities.

The Film Society of Lincoln Center, also a member-supported organization, maintains a prominent position within the international film network as a discerning, innovative exhibitor. The Film Society produces the annual New York Film Festival, a Gala Tribute to a distinguished film artist, co-produces New Directors/New Films with the Museum of Modern Art, and publishes the bi-monthly magazine Film Comment.
