Dear Calvin,
It is our great pleasure to invite your film BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA
to participate in the 28th Asian American International Film Festival (AAIFF),
the country’s longest running festival dedicated
to screening works by artists of
Asian descent.
This year’s festival, held in association with the Asia Society, will take
place
from July 15-23, 2005 at
the Asia Society and Museum in Manhattan,
and
from July 29-31, 2005 at
the Cinema Arts Centre on Long Island.
This year's program will include over 80 films from Asian and Asian American
filmmakers. In addition to screenings,
Q&As, workshops and panels, there will
also be an industry networking cocktail
hour, a staged screenplay reading,
works-in-progress screenings, parties and much more.
With your consent, we would like the right to screen the film one time. We will
notify you of the exact screening date(s) and time(s) as soon as the scheduling
is complete. We invite critics,
distributors, and members of the film industry to
screenings in order to provide greater exposure for your work.
We would also like to invite BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA to
participate in the National Festival
Tour, which commences after the festival for
one year, traveling to universities,
colleges and cultural institutions across
the country. It is a great way for broader non-festival audiences to see
your
work and filmmakers receive 30% of the
rental fees. Please see the attached
Tour Agreement for more information.
In addition, we would like BIG TROUBLE IN LITTLE CHINA to join
ACV’s Asian American Media Archive/Library, which houses the nation's
most comprehensive collection of
Asian/Asian American media works. Should
you like to have a Beta SP/DVD copy of your project included in the ACV
Archive, please indicate so in your response.
We warmly welcome your participation in the AAIFF and will provide you
with access to screenings and special
events, including press conferences,
receptions, workshops, and panel discussions. We will advise you on how to
obtain tickets at a later date.
Please complete the attached confirmation release forms (and tour agreement,
if applicable) and fax to 212.727.3584 no later than Friday, MAY 6. It is
imperative that we obtain press and print materials by the indicated dates on
the attached page. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact
our Festival Coordinator, Vivian Lin, at coordinator@asiancinevision.org or
me at diana@asiancinevision.org.
Thank you very much for participating in the 28th AAIFF, and we look
forward to seeing you in July!
Sincerely,
Diana Lee
Festival Director
