Dear Potential Festival 2009 Sponsor,

The Nanaimo Arts Council is pleased to announce that the Vancouver Island Short Film Festival continues to be extremely successful. Last year, the shows attracted hundreds of people from Nanaimo, Victoria, the North Island and everywhere in between. We showed the 21 top films from Vancouver Island filmmakers. This is a unique and important event in our community: it is the only short film festival on Vancouver Island that showcases local filmmakers. This festival can not take place without the generous support from sponsors like YOU!
Your support significantly impacts filmmakers like Tash Baycroft. This Nanaimo resident had the debut of his locally produced dramatic short film “Gone” at the 2007 festival. He has since gone on to rave reviews world wide, showing at the New York Film and Video Festival and Cannes. Parksville filmmaker, Paul Wittington submitted his short animated film “Android 207” to our 2007 festival and won best film, best technical and people’s choice award. This wonderfully crafted film has been shown at the Beloit International Film Festival and the Arizona International Film Festival. It also won awards at the Milwaukee International Film festival including People’s Choice.
The VISFF represents a unique advertising opportunity. Sponsors can positively communicate their company’s name, image, products, and services to a clearly defined, influential, socially aware and highly receptive audience. The VISFF has created a comprehensive sponsorship package that offers highly visible opportunities, including Festival packages designed to meet your marketing and promotional needs.
