Accreditation press

The 9th Odesa International Film Festival (July 13-21, 2018) invites journalists and media representatives to participate.


ACCREDITATION CONDITIONS 

PRESS accreditation is provided only to representatives of official media outlets (registered print media, radio and television, informational and educational online resources, websites) to cover the events of the festival. Each media category has a maximum accreditation quota, which is
  • for TV channels – 3 people 
  • for print and online media – 2 people 
  • for radio stations – 1 person  

The need to obtain accreditations in the amount exceeding the quota for a particular publication must be justified and confirmed by an official letter from the project / publication manager. To apply for accreditation, you must register and fill out an application form on the OIFF website. The press service of the OIFF reserves the right, upon considering the application, to request additional materials from the applicant, as well as to refuse accreditation without explanation. 

Depending on the deadline of the application, the PRESS accreditation is granted: 
  • April 10-June 12, 2018 – FREE OF CHARGE 
  • June 13-30, 2018 – 800 UAH 
  • July 1, 2018 – accreditation is closed 

The issuing of the PRESS accreditation implies automatic inclusion of the journalist’s e-mail address into the OIFF mailing list (news, press releases, information for accredited media). In order to comply with copyright, as well as for the convenience of viewers, photography and filming during festival screenings of competition and non-competition programs is prohibited. Photo and video materials for the films will be provided by the press service. The OIFF press office accepts applications for organizing exclusive interviews with all guests of the festival, but does not guarantee their realization. A journalist with a PRESS accreditation undertakes to provide copies of all materials about OIFF (.pdf, video, audio, links) by the deadline set by the press service. In case of failure to provide the materials, the journalist may be denied accreditation in the future. 

LEVELS OF PRESS ACCREDITATION 

The festival provides two levels (I and II) of accreditation for the press. Level I provides the right to visit special events of the festival and priority access to some screenings. The level of accreditation is assigned by the press service on the basis of the history of the cooperation with the festival. The press service reserves the right to not explain its decision in individual cases. The level of accreditation is not subject to contention for the duration of one year. The confirmation letter on accreditation will indicate the level of accreditation of the journalist.
