Review and Upon Acceptance

Jury Review Process

All submissions are reviewed with identical selection criteria: content, technical implementation, innovation, artistic achievement, production values, creativity, originality, narrative, design, entertainment value, and advancement of visualisation in the artistic and scientific fields of digital technologies. Entries representing both technical excellence and innovation will be shown in the Electronic Theatre.

Submitted work will be considered by a jury comprised of experts from all areas of computer graphics and interactive techniques. Additionally, the Electronic Theatre chairs have curatorial responsibility and discretion to select, organise, and direct the review process and to ensure the quality of every aspect of the Electronic Theatre.

Upon Acceptance

Submitters of accepted film and video pieces will be notified by December 20 2002.

Final accepted works MUST be submitted on PAL D1 (720x576 pixel resolution at 25fps) BetaSP or as a Digital File (MPEG/QuickTime/AVI) on DVD-R.

DVD will NOT be accepted as compilation from DVD is not possible.

Your submission must include a completed and signed Graphite2003 Acceptance Agreement. If we do not receive your completed, signed acceptance agreement, your work cannot be presented at Graphite2003.

The acceptance agreement is a legal document. It explains the uses Graphite2003 makes of presented material and requires you to acknowledge that you have permission to use this material. This may involve seeking clearance from your employer or from others who have loaned you material, such as videotapes and slides. The agreement helps prevent situations whereby Graphite2003 presentations include material without permission that might lead to complaints or even legal action. In addition, this agreement asks if Graphite2003 and/or ACM SIGGRAPH may use your materials for conference and organisation promotional material in exchange for full author/artist credit information.
