“VideoComic” Announcement


Art. 1) - Registration for the Festival

Creators without age limits from all over the world can join the Festival Video Comic, International Comic Video Festival, organized by Flipfly S.r.l. in Milan.


Art. 2) - Sections of the Festival

The Festival Video Comic offers the possibility of a registration that will be inserted, at the discretion of the organizers, into one of the following four sections:

SECTION 1
Short-Com: a brief story (14’ duration max), ironic, funny, brilliant with a final effect. It is a video with dialogues, prepared with a script. But it can also be a sketch, a comedy skit with a few actors and one location.

SECTION 2
Viral: it is a video that relies entirely on content that must be so robust and expresses an emotion so strong you immediately want to share it with a friend. It is an unstoppable video-virus but has nothing evil about it. It is a video that is fun, crazy, absurd, bizarre but irresistible, exciting, engaging and funny that lasts 2’ maximum.

SECTION 3
Gag: This section of the International Festival is dedicated to slapstick, or comedy skits that do not need words and which are based mainly on body language. They last a maximum of 2’.
