< Recruitment> [For Students] We are looking for members of the Executive Committee of the 20th Kyoto International Student Film Festival!
What is the Kyoto International Student Film Festival?
The Kyoto International Student Film Festival is the largest international student film festival in Japan, planned and operated mainly by university students in the Kansai region, mainly in Kyoto, and will be held for the 20th time in 2017.
The purpose of this program is to gather independent films produced by students from all over the world, review them by the executive committee, and create opportunities for students to screen them, and to discover future filmmakers.
Historically, Kyoto is a “movie town” that still inherits the cultural heritage of the early days of Japan cinema, and it is also a “university town and student town” where students account for 10% of the population of Kyoto City.
The festival aims to revitalize Kyoto by creating a place for international exchange and mutual understanding by discovering and introducing talents who can add new fields to cinema from among the many possibilities of films from around the world.
We are looking for new student executive committee members!
Would you like to participate in the 20th anniversary film festival? We are currently looking for students to enliven the festival. The festival receives a wide variety of films, both domestic and international. The executive committee is student-led in everything from the solicitation of films to the judging and planning of the film festival. Through a series of activities such as public relations activities and sponsorship requests, you can learn the know-how of festival management.
Students from various universities and faculties participate in the executive committee, regardless of grade, so friendships are expanded. Even if you are a beginner, senior executive committee members and university consortium Kyoto staff will support your activities, so please feel free to contact us.
