The Fine Print:
If an entry is accepted for the 2008 program, the DIVA Center reserves the right to compile that entry with others for purposes of programming. The Center assumes the permission of the entrant to repeat screenings of that compilation at the DIVA Center and other venues, such as Eugene's Bijou Theater and the Eugene Celebration's "Best Of Series" film festival, where the OpenLens Festival 2008 would be featured as part of the program. This right is retained for one year after the OpenLens Festival ends. It is further understood that a permanent copy of the compilation will remain with the DIVA Center for archival purposes.
It is understood that if an entry is accepted for the 2008 program the submitting artist will receive three free tickets to a special screening session for festival entrants in which his/her entry will be shown. Additional screenings required tickets and can be purchased at the door for regular public screenings.
It is understood that each submitting artist is responsible for all copyright and permission clearance in his/her entry and that DIVA accepts no responsibility for copyright or permission infringement.
