Since 2000, HDFEST has been online providing entertainment to audiences. You might know us from our HD film festivals which have toured around the world spreading THE GOOD NEWS of High-Definition, my brother.
Also HDFEST has hundreds of movie reviews and articles on the website- including reviews of HD movies, indie movies and even mainstream film. Also HDFEST showcases groundbreaking visual art and streaming/ downloadable video.

SUBMIT WORKS TO THE FESTIVAL
There are quite a few ways to participate with HDFEST. If you are a filmmaker you can submit a HD or HDV film to our annual digital film festival. However, HDFEST 2008 is not accepting entries any longer, so you will have to wait until next year. If you are one of our friends, we will let you know as soon as our call for entries opens for the year.
Better yet, put us on your subscribers list or top friends and you will automatically be notified when we open up the call for entries.
If you are a filmmaker working in any medium you can also participate online with a video even if it isn't HD or HDV. There is some information on the website here about how to do this. Also visual artists can participate too online and promote their work. Again, visit the website www.hdfest.com for details.
HDFEST MUSICIAN & FILMMMAKER MEETING GROUNDS
HDFEST also has a matching service for filmmakers and bands. This is for:
1. Filmmakers looking for assistance finding indie music for their films (filmmaker do not need to have used HD to use this service, your film can originate in 35mm, DV, 16mm, Animation or virtually any other medium)
